May be we should punt them from the tree?


Eclasses can't be removed...

Arguably we could specify a time period before they can be removed? This is probably GLEP material though :)

Maybe we should have a deprecated eclass for showing a common messaged that certain eclasses should not be used. Then deprecated eclasses could be detected by looking if they inherit deprecated.

Maybe we could just extend the eclass API to have a DEPRECATED="yyyy-mm-dd" variable at the top of the eclass - which would move the burden to the PM - instead of adding yet another eclass (which we wouldn't be able to remove :p)

Cheers
