So long as we make it absolutely clear what the different colour/decoration means, I like the idea... in theory. If we can clearly communicate that greyed-out functions are deprecated and strike-through means removed "in the latest (numerically, not necessarily chronologically) stable release" (or wherever we drew the line), that would be nice.

Yeah, I don't want it to be confusing. Maybe a very small legend could be added.

If we can't be absolutely clear and obvious what is meant by the different styling, I'd be hesitant to introduce it. Especially given we have loads of information readily available on the function page proper.

Right.

P.S. Shouldn't these suggestions be being made for the "beta" site?

I didn't think of that; good point. -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/
