Hi Paul,

Doesn't the @deprecated annotation actually
does exactly the job?
(except it has to be interpreted as meaning something else than "old code", but
"do not use code").
@Deprecated means something different. It's about some code that you shouldn't
use because we no longer think it's good to use and it's going to be removed in
the future.
This is not what a @beta or @experimental annotation would mean. They would mean
"this is a new api that you can use but it's not stable yet and may change in the
future so be prepared to update your code if that happens".
Plus @deprecated is technically pretty stable API while @beta can be
broken anytime.
Thanks
