Well, every new release will remove features deprecated N releases ago, where N is presumably some constant whose value is being debated here. That will be so in steady state whether N is 1 or 10 (i.e., the value of N doesn't really matter to that): the pressure to recode (and your temptation to skip releases) is related more to the frequency of releases than to the length of the deprecation grace period. _______________________________________________ Zope3-dev mailing list [email protected] Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
