well, not to complain, but I will mention on this topic.

If something is marked deprecated, its 10x easier if in the javadocs there
is some version information applied.

In the wild west that is contrib, its currently a bit difficult for me to
clear out the deprecations from 2.9, because there are new deprecations
added in 3.0.
it takes svn annotate + jira + CHANGES to figure out exactly what should be
cleared out (and sometimes these all seem to disagree, Fix Version !=
Changes, etc etc)

This is why i only did part of LUCENE-2022
