Track deprecations

[0xdabbad00]

When AWS deprecates a policy they aren't listed anymore. I don't keep track of this. I should. An example is ServiceQuotasServiceRolePolicy no longer exists.

I'm seeking feedback if anyone has ideas on how I should deprecate these. Currently, the following polices in this repo do not exist anymore if you call aws iam list-policies:

• AmazonMachineLearningRoleforRedshiftDataSource
• ServiceQuotasServiceRolePolicy
• TagGovernancePolicy

Should I delete these policies? Rename them with -deprecated? Change the contents with a custom flag, like deprecated: True?

-deprecated sounds a good idea ;)

Does this repository is fully automated? how does this work under the hood?

[0xdabbad00]

I manually run the commands a few times per day. Usually once in the morning, afternoon, and evening. It's on my todo list to automate it.

The AWSOpsWorksRegisterCLI policy appears to be deprecated now.

Don't delete and don't change the contents is my gut reaction. -deprecated OR moving them to a policies-deprecated path. Having it in a different path makes it more obvious for users.

I like that idea @RyPeck of having another directory for the deprecated policies. It makes it easier to search only on the the active policies too. I'll either manually find and move the policies over or look at what the options are for #3 to do this.
