Subject: [nvda-addons] Removing deprecated code paths form NVDA Core: please speak up if you are using speech.reason* and other deprecated code paths


Hi all,



I remember posting on the nvda-devel list a while ago regarding removing
code paths marked as deprecated in the screen reader source code. Last time
I asked if anyone is using i18n names for synth settings ring and received
no responses from coders who actually uses these, which implies that it is
safe to remove this.



The other code paths in NVDA Core that are marked as deprecated include:



* Speech.reason* constants
* synthDriverHandler. SynthDriver: speakText and speakCharacter
methods
* config. validateConfig
* config.val
* config.save



If any of you (NVDA Core and add-on maintainers) are using any of the above,
please speak up before February 28, 2017. If I hear from nobody, I'll create
a NVDA Core pull request in March proposing that the above code paths be
removed before end of 2017. Thanks.

Cheers,

Joseph
