Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-10999:
--------------------------------------
Jacques,
What was the gist of the discussion back then? There were a lot of follow-up suggestions (actionable items?), but were they followed up/through?
The thing is that we have about 200 functions marked deprecated, and easy way of telling when they were deprecated or when they will be removed.
> Have all @deprecated show when it will be removed from the repo

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10999> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ALL COMPONENTS
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently we don't provide any information on functions with @deprecated when they will be removed from the repo.
> I suggest we add a 'Will be removed at ' + a designator for a release branch after the latest available to the @deprecated, when a function is to be deprecated.
> As an example:
> * Currently latest available branch is: release18.12
> * if a contributor deprecates a function now, the statement would be: @deprecated Will be removed at release branch 20.12
> This would leave adopters with enough time to plan for migrations, and at the moment the new branch is cut contributors can easily find what needs to be removed.
