Hi,

Gnus has a few backward compatibility face declarations like this:

(put 'gnus-group-news-4-face 'obsolete-face "22.1")

Emacs 22.1 was released on 2007-06-02 -- over 10 years ago.

What is the policy on removing such declarations?

R releases?
M major releases?
Y years?

Where is it officially documented?

Thanks.
