-What: Compaq touchscreen device emulation
-When: Oct 2007
-Files: drivers/input/tsdev.c
-Why: The code says it was obsolete when it was written in 2001.
- tslib is a userspace library which does anything tsdev can do and
- much more besides in userspace where this code belongs. There is no
- longer any need for tsdev and applications should have converted to
- use tslib by now.
- The name "tsdev" is also extremely confusing and lots of people have
- it loaded when they don't need/use it.

+What: i386/x86_64 bzImage symlinks
+When: April 2008
+
+Why: The i386/x86_64 merge provides a symlink to the old bzImage

+ scripts, do not break.

+
+What: shaper network driver
+When: January 2008
+Files: drivers/net/shaper.c, include/linux/if_shaper.h
+Why: This driver has been marked obsolete for many years.
+ It was only designed to work on lower speed links and has design
+ flaws that lead to machine crashes. The qdisc infrastructure in
+ 2.4 or later kernels, provides richer features and is more robust.
