I'm upraising priority here, because I believe that's one of problems that we need to solve before moving forward.
I agree with @Ricordisamoa that 1 year after deprecation should be enough. I also think, that we should count this period from the first pypi (and in future conda-based) release that contains deprecation (see: #1, #2).
Moreover I believe we should abandon this overambitious plan to release first non-RC version after providing support for all compat features. I would even suggest to abandon feature-based release cycle and make it time-based. We could stick here to Mediawiki/Core release cycle (see: #3) and using SemVer (see: #4) increase major version number every 6 months (like Mediawiki does with second version number). It will give us opportunity to remove part of deprecated objects every 6 months.
@Xqt this issue is more than year old, could we establish deadline for it and don't discuss it indefinitely? I would propose here 2 weeks (that will give us possibility to release just around Mediawiki 1.28) but if You think that we need more time, just propose any deadline, please.
@Xqt, @hashar, @jayvdb, @Legoktm, @valhallasw, @XZise and others, what do You think about it?
