Daniel -
There is a procedure already in place for deprecating ANY code. It is part
of X.Org's commitment to stability of the code base. The Architecture Group
is the place to start; under Paul Anderson's chairmanship they are empowered
to review and propose changes. You should write xorg_arch@x.org.
It is also inappropriate to propose cdhanges - much less changes of this
magnitude - just prior to the Christmas-New Year's holidays, which affect
many active members of the community.
I suggest you start by reviewing standing policies with Paul Anderson.
