> Or maintaining a bunch of deprecated API?
I looked at the log for gtkclist.c and the majority of the changes over the
past five years are a direct consequence of the api having been declared
deprecated. Specifically there is a lot of defining and undefining of
GDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED going back and forth there. Even so,
not much is going on.
So the maintenance burden, to the extent there is one, is _caused_ by
deprecation. And that's even within gtk+.
Pretty ironic, isn't it?
