If there are any objections/suggestions on the above plan kindly please let us know within the next 3-4 weeks since the spec freeze date for glance is 12th Jan, 2024. If there will be no response till 4th Jan we will assume that it's a go forward signal and can merge the spec lite for the same.

Hello Everyone,
Glance core team have discussed and decided during Caracal PTG[1] about the deprecation of location strategy since in Bobcat we added support for the weighing mechanism to glance store[2]. To use this new feature we decided to deprecate location strategy in this cycle and remove it in 'D' (2024.2) development cycle[3].
In this cycle we are going to deprecate following configuration options related to location strategy: * location_strategy * store_type_preference Also a warning message regarding deprecation will be added to`location_order` and `store_type` strategy module during the initiation phase.
Please let us know if you have any comments on the plan above.
