This plan goes okay with me.
Maybe just you could shorten then message to fit 70 chars or so.
Maybe like this:
whatnow is deprecated. Consider switching to whatnow2.
(Besides: We should avoid predicting the future. You never know
if the 0.5 release will actually turn out to be what you now
think it will. If at all, then write ``will be removed soon'' or
``in some of the next releases'', but actually, the word
``deprecated'' says this already.)
Nonetheless, I like the warning message.

I have problems finding free time to have closer looks. But that
shall not delay anything. Release as planned. If we discover
problems afterwards, the following release only comes sooner. ;-)
Keep going!
