Hi, You can also download the JAR files of those releases and use a comparison tool like http://siom79.github.io/japicmp/ to compare them. This tool can be run using CLI and also prints changes in @Deprecated.
The CLI syntax is here: http://siom79.github.io/japicmp/CliTool.html I always use "-m" (only show modified stuff) and "-o" and "-n" to specify the old and new JAR file. After that you can grep on something like DEPRECATED.
