1. remove/update the app options (wikis, CMS, bulletin boards, Squirrelmail etc)

   These are so out of date as to be seriously vulnerable, with versions that mostly cannot be readily installed without installing PHP version 7.0 and (often) to add in the mysql module to PHP even if you are using that.

   These options should be removed unless it can be upgraded to the latest versions of PHP and the mysql module added to PHP - at the very least something on the page BEFORE installation saying that this will require outdated and unsupported versions of PHP and any additional modules so people

   Thank you for your input and consideration for keeping Plesk and its users safe. We are aware that the catalogue is currently outdated. The APS technology itself is outdated. Plesk is currently in the process of replacing the old catalog system with a new extension.
