[PATCH 2/2] RelNotes/2.24.0: fix self-contradictory note

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

As per Wikipedia, "In current technical usage, for one to state that a
feature is deprecated is merely a recommendation against using it."  It
is thus contradictory to claim that something is not "officially
deprecated" and then to immediately state that we are both discouraging
its use and pointing people elsewhere.
