Visual Studio 2012 and Web Deployment Projects (wdproj)

Can't seem to find any clear info on this. When I open my Visual Studio 2010 SP1 solution in Visual Studio 2012, it reports that wdproj is incompatible. What's the 2012 alternative to wdproj?

It looks like WDP (Web Deployment Projects, *.wdproj) is not going to be supported in VS 2012, someone has already answered the question here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/12061065/922169
