New submission from Sjoerd Mullender <sjo...@acm.org>:

When a module or feature is deprecated, all uses of the deprecated 
module/feature should be removed from the non-deprecated part of the 
distribution (and, I would argue, also from the other deprecated modules).
I think PEP 4 should say something to this effect.

I suggest adding a sentence to the section "Procedure for declaring a module 
deprecated", something like:  "The proposal MUST include patches to remove any 
use of the deprecated module from the standard library."
