+       * Deprecation announcement:
+         The GConf functions for applets in libpanel-applet have been
+         marked as deprecated since version 3.0, but this deprecation had
+         never been formally announced. It has been suggested that
+          these functions are removed as the last included applets
+          migrate to GSettings.
+         We hereby announce that these Gconf functions will be removed
+          in an ABI- and API-breaking major release of libpanel-applet
+          sometime after 2014-12-31.
+
+         Maintainers of applets that rely on libpanel-applet are encouraged
+         to get in contact with the gnome-flashback-list to coordinate
+         a schedule that fits everybody's needs. (Philipp Kaluza)
