Thanks for the +1. Do you mean the libraries that will be removed when we migrate to GNOME 3.0? Note that this won't happen until GNOME 3.30, which is about 1 year away. It might be better to wait to do this for GNOME 2.28 since we will have a clearer picture of how the libraries will change. Though we could provide some information today and highlight that plans are still in the works. Which manpage do you think we should modify? gnome-interfaces.5 or the manpage for each Platform library that the GNOME community plans to deprecate? Or, are you talking about a library being removed in this case? Aside from the GStreamer CDDA plugin, removing SSE support for a few libraries, a purple plugin, and an evolution plugin, I don't see many library interfaces being removed in this case. I wouldn't think these would require any manpage changes since they aren't user-facing interfaces. Brian
