For future reference:

If a feature has been removed then it isn't really correct to call 
it "deprecated".  Deprecate means "to disapprove of" or, in this context, 
that "the use of this feature is discouraged and a suitable alternative 
probably exists".  To deprecate a feature implies that one could still use it 
if you wanted but it should not be relied on to exist in the future.  If a 
feature no longer exists then describing it as "removed" is sufficient.
