[Glade-users] Deprecate

Hello.

First, read this link: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/deprecation
(especially definition number 3). Do you still think that it was open
source community who added another meaning to the term?

I didn't take this rant personally, since I only used the words of
official developers (if you read API docs, there is a lot of stuff
marked as being deprecated), but spamming this mailing list without
even checking the dictionary first does annoy me enough to respond.

BTW, I'm not a native English speaker and I'm sure I misuse many
words, but deprecated doesn't seem to be among abused ones.
