If the code is currently working and isn't a security hole, then we obviously don't "have to". Apparently several developers "want to", which is different. > It looks like the decision moves to "later" (deprecate in > 3.2, remove in 3.3). I still think that drop now doesn't really hurt. If you drop code without first deprecating it, chances are it will hurt someone. That's why having a deprecation period is the rule we usually follow (most of the time :-)).
