What I've used in the past goes along the lines of: - Use my gut-feeling to decide whether to keep the obsolete compat function, erring on the side of "removal" rather than on the "safe" side. - Some of the removed functions may later be re-added based on bug-reports from user. And sometimes it's easier to just remove them all or just keep them all. Stefan
