My objection is that if we have new synonyms for existing commands that will be available in release "n" (i.e. svn.revision and livecheck.type that will be available in 1.8.0), then we must not mark the old commands as deprecated until release "n" has in fact been released.

I agree on this, but it seems to me that the old commands can be deprecated (so people start getting warnings about them) as soon as the version 'n' (which has the new replacement commands) is released.

The old deprecated commands would then be removed at some future release.
