Patchset:
This is not breaking API of old applications. […]
To me, the intention of DEPRECATED is to make people aware that they are using an inferior/obsolete API with some problems and they should switch to a new one. Like recently the change with telnet_init_dynif where the old API resulted in vty-configured port numbers not to be used.
I agree we could potentially remove old API, if it really has *significant* advantages for us, but I would say it's more in a >= 5 year cycle than a 2 year cycle. We have to think of our users, and every time we break something, it creates fall-out downstream.
