<div dir="auto">I'd argue two years isn't exactly quick... Especially with warnings on previous minor releases after decisions have been made. 2 years is fair - 4 is just too long.

If the modules are deprecated, they're deprecated for a reason - kill them as quickly as reasonably possible and be done with it - it'll help everyone in the community long term. If someone disagrees with say getting rid of chan_sip then they can continue to run 17/18 or whatever - or they can take the contents of chan_sip, and apply them as a patch themselves. I'm picking on chan_sip here because its the current thing that caused these conversations in the first place.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Okay, so you'd like to see it be faster because in your opinion its better for the user base long term to force the transition quickly.</div><div><br></div><div>I think I personally hesitate to be so aggressive because long ago the project was that way.
