Re: [eclipse-pmc] API Deprecation Policy

Sure. How about ?

The cost for migrating an Eclipse-based product to the next release is
often far from negligeable and for a range of reasons (including API compatibility,
use of other bundle internals, becoming obsoleted by feature additions,
...). We should construct the list of pain points, and start thinking on
how these could be eased, baring in mind that ultimately, moving to a service
release should be a no brainer.

Hi Mike, Philippe et al,
 
regarding the API Deprecation discussion
at the AC: I'm planning to send out a short reminder E-Mail to the AC some
time tomorrow. As part of that E-Mail, I could simply mention that the
Deprecation discussion is scheduled for the meeting. If you guys could
come up with a few brain teasers for that discussion (just 2 or 3 sentences),
that might help sparking off a nice discussion. What do you think?
 
Cheers,
