[Python-Dev] Deprecation policy

[Éric Araujo]

Hi,

+1 to all Ezio said.  One specific remark:

PendingDeprecationWarning could just become an alias of
DeprecationWarning, but maybe there is code out there that relies on the
distinction, and there is no real value in making it an alias (there is
value in removing it altogether, but we can’t do that, can we?).  I
don’t see the need to deprecate PDW, except in documentation, and am -1
to the metaclass idea (no need).

Cheers
