+What:           dv1394 (a.k.a. "OHCI-DV I/O support" for FireWire)
+Date:           May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
+Contact:        linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
+Description:
+        /dev/dv1394/* were character device files, one for each FireWire
+        controller and for NTSC and PAL respectively, from which DV data
+        could be received by read() or transmitted by write().  A few
+        ioctl()s allowed limited control.
+        This special-purpose interface has been superseded by libraw1394 +
+        libiec61883 which are functionally equivalent, support HDV, and
+        transparently work on top of the newer firewire kernel drivers.

+What:           /sys/o2cb symlink

+Contact:        ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com
+Description:    This is a symlink: /sys/o2cb to /sys/fs/o2cb. The symlink is
+                removed when new versions of ocfs2-tools which know to look
+                in /sys/fs/o2cb are sufficiently prevalent. Don't code new
+                software to look here, it should try /sys/fs/o2cb instead.
+Users:          ocfs2-tools. It's sufficient to mail proposed changes to
+                ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com.

+What:           raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire)
+Date:           May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
+Contact:        linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
+Description:
+        /dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level
+        access to FireWire buses.  Its major drawbacks were its inability
+        to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level
+        of abstraction that required userspace clients do duplicate much
+        of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality.
+        Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of
+        firewire-core.

-What:           legacy isochronous ABI of raw1394 (1st generation iso ABI)
-Date:           June 2007 (scheduled), removed in kernel v2.6.23
-Contact:        linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
-Description:
-        The two request types RAW1394_REQ_ISO_SEND, RAW1394_REQ_ISO_LISTEN have
-        been deprecated for quite some time.  They are very inefficient as they
-        come with high interrupt load and several layers of callbacks for each
-        packet.  Because of these deficiencies, the video1394 and dv1394 drivers
-        and the 3rd-generation isochronous ABI in raw1394 (rawiso) were created.
-
-Users:
-        libraw1394 users via the long deprecated API raw1394_iso_write,
-        raw1394_start_iso_write, raw1394_start_iso_rcv, raw1394_stop_iso_rcv
-
-        libdc1394, which optionally uses these old libraw1394 calls
-        alternatively to the more efficient video1394 ABI

+Contact:        linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
+Description:
+        /dev/video1394/* were character device files, one for each FireWire
+        controller, which were used for isochronous I/O.  It was added as an
+        alternative to raw1394's isochronous I/O functionality which had
+        performance issues in its first generation.  Any video1394 user had
+        to use raw1394 + libraw1394 too because video1394 did not provide
+        asynchronous I/O for device discovery and configuration.
+        Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of
