In the thread on compiling DSSS and build tools someone

Environment env = {

A followup comment says "isn't that syntax intended to be
deprecated?"
Is this accurate - that the nice json-esque syntax for
initializing structs will be deprecated? If so, can someone
give color on why/when?
Also, for this and other issues regarding features going away,
is there a central place where these items are being tracked?
How can we know what is on the chopping block?
Thanks

There's another thread very much related to your question,
Breaking D2 language/spec changes with D1 being discontinued in a
month
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/svkdolzzcqotdmifc...@forum.dlang.org
Which resulted in this effort
D Stable Proposal

There's another thread concerning the way planned depreciations
are handled by the compiler, but I'm not sure where that one is.
Supposedly there's a pending pull request waiting to be approved
by Walter. The change is intended to significantly improve how
the compiler treats depreciations, making them much more
meaningful and useful to the compiler user.
