Incompatible change without "warning"

[Frank Schmitt]

Hello

I see that on 2005-4-18 the tooltip-use-echo-area was renamed to
tooltip-gud-echo-area. This change breaks existing code
(semantic). Isn't it common practise to first deprecate a variable
before deleting it? And shouldn't this make it into NEWS?

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
