I disagree. A project which has not been released should not have to care
about deprecation.

What your basically saying is that if someone adds a feature to CVS then
it cannot later be removed but must be deprecated, even if not released.

Whoever is the coder on Commons Email should be fixing it when they
notice that the CVS HEAD they are dependent on has changed. The
alternative you suggest is impossible beyond the simplest of systems.
