We're planning on moving to a model where we do an approximately annual "garbage collection" pass on the framework (corresponding with a major version bump) and simply nuke all of the code that has been deprecated since the last major version release.

Maybe a process similar to Django's would be helpful? https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/release-proc...

Fun fact: Python's PEP process influenced Rust's RFC process, which influenced Ember's.
