Feature #3740: Missing API removal information in NEWS
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/3740

Author: Jon Forums
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
Category: doc

NEWS for 1.9.2-p0 did not mention that 'rb_str2cstr' and 'STR2CSTR' were removed from include/ruby/ruby.h  Although 1.7.1 first obsoleted these and the removal is documented in the 1.9.2-p0 Changelog, it would be convenient if future NEWS would summarize the APIs that have been removed from a specific release.

Perhaps adding something similar to a "Deprecated/Removed API" section to the existing "Compatibility issues" NEWS section.

Jon
