Indeed. SCons does have a deprecation cycle: https://github.com/SCons/scons/wiki/DeprecationCycle That said it generally doesn't apply to non-public API's. But, since it should be fairly trivial to support backwards compat for a deprecation cycle, it seems worth doing. On Sat, Mar 31, 2018 at 12:15 PM, Andrew C.
