But surely the *entire purpose* of deprecations is to be *less* damaging than removals, and so if we're implicitly considering them equally bad, that suggests to me that our deprecation mechanism is totally broken, and needs to be fixed.
If deprecation is not considered to be "removal upcoming, fix your code now" then there is no point to deprecation. I don't understand your point otherwise. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
