Hi Thanks for putting this patch together. I agree with the approach. We can even hope to release 2.13 quickly after 2.12. When you say mark code as deprecated do you mean having *deprecated* strings in the API doc strings, or do you also mean displaying deprecation messages in the console? -- Eric Lemoine Camptocamp France SAS Savoie Technolac, BP 352 73377 Le Bourget du Lac, Cedex Tel : 00 33 4 79 44 44 96 Mail : eric.lemo...@camptocamp.com http://www.camptocamp.com
