I actually checked the oVirt 4.0.0 and 4.0.5 release notes and I do
not see anything mentioning ovirt-cli or REST v3 deprecation. This
will (removal of RESTv3 support) affect the optimizer and quite
possibly even hosted engine setup.
Hi,
this seems to indicate that even core ovirt devs do not
know about every feature which gets deprecated.
Maybe this could be solved by sandro's suggestion
to at least create an BZ for each deprecation.
I would agree with that, but also like to propose
an alternative way, because at the stage of bug creation
the deprecation is already set in stone and can't be discussed further
(I fear).
So my proposal would be to mail to the devel list at least
the proposal: "I/we want to get rid of feature/implementation X, use Z
instead".
This would give developers and users enough time to engage with the
community, replacing dependencies or start a discussion if removal can't
be done later.
A clear deprecation guideline would also be helpful, I guess.
Something like: Features will get marked as deprecated in release X.Y
and removed in X.Y+2 (or whatever number you might chose).
This would allow for much better preparation in the community and lead
to less unpleasant surprises.
HTH & keep up the good work!
