Comment (by nthiery):
Hi guys!
I love this new syntax; it's a great way to point to the right piece of
information! I also appreciate the tremendous work you put into recovering
the ticket number for all deprecation warnings in Sage.
However, I am deeply concerned by the fact that this patch touches so many
files in Sage. It is going to create conflicts with many upcoming patches,
including many in the Sage-Combinat queue. We are already having great
trouble getting things in and this would waste a *lot* of good developpers
time.
I thus would strongly recommend, if not request, that this change be made
with a transition period where including a track ticket number is
mandatory for getting new/refactored code into Sage, but where old
deprecation warnings could be left as is. Anyway, those deprecation
warnings are doomed to progressively disapear by themselves; is it really
worth refactoring them?
John: sorry for voicing this, ... well ... loudly, earlier today. Sorry
also for not sumbling earlier on this ticket to give my view point before
all the work is done.
Cheers,
Nicolas
