Hi,

This patch removes the paragraph in DEPRECATED.pod mentioning that the
.imc file extension is deprecated since there are no longer any .imc
files in Parrot (having all been turned into .pir). I *think* this is
the right thing to do, but I'm not 100% sure, and I hope I'm not
overstepping any bounds or anything.

Regards,

Paul

i'm not 100% sure this is the right thing to do, either. the most
recent version of "perl 6 and parrot essentials" still makes reference
to '.imc' files. with this paragraph in deprecated.pod, there's
something to grep for that might help readers make the transition to
'.pir'.

True. Thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. I won't be offended if the
patch is rejected. :-)

i've assigned the ticket to chip. i'm sure he'll make a decision and
take action.

This patch doesn't really need to be applied. Can I resolve/remove it?

Paul
