Long time has passed since the developer user group has been actively used. Nowadays, users have that group, I guess, for historical reasons and/or because they didn't remove it. Since there will be no use from this user group, I call for its total removal from the software.
In the URL field, I provided a list of wikis that still have users with developer status. Since the list is not that small, the removal of those groups can be performed manually. If people on the tech team agree, I can remove the user groups.
The part for the developers is the following: just(?) remove the developer user group from the default set of user groups/rights/classes.
Version: unspecified
