(Also on Twitter: https://twitter.com/_parv/status/1476073995598323714)
In Define the Dancer2 Deprecation Policy #1635, could somebody tell me how "hard deprecation" of some code ...
Hard Deprecation
After 12 months or two major releases (whichever comes first), the code is considered to be hard deprecated. An error will continue to be thrown, but unlike soft deprecation, continued usage of the deprecated code will cause the application to die. ...
... is effectively not "removal" if an application would die after "hard deprecation" has been implemented? (earlier discussion referenced in there)
On top of that, there is another 6-month wait for the actual removal of the (hard) deprecated code.
