For libvirt, I think whenever something is proposed for deprecation we could just CC libvir-list, or ask one of the libvirt people to confirm its not being used. If it is, then we should file BZ against libvirt.
Makes sense, but relying on developers getting their cc: right every time is a setting us up for failure.
Our tool to help with getting cc: wrong less often is the MAINTAINERS file. Could one of the libvirt developers watch changes to qemu-doc appendix "Deprecated features"? Would putting the appendix in its own .texi help with that?
Sound like a good idea to put the appendix in its own texi file. Then add an "R: libvir-list" entry for that file to MAINTAINERS and we should be fine (at least for the people who use the get_maintainers.pl script).
That's a neat idea and gets my vote. Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
