[Biopython-dev] Deprecating parts of Bio.PopGen.SimCoal

[Tiago Antao]

Hi,

Currently we have went through the procedure of asking on the mailing
lists about Simcoal deprecation (now that we have fastsimcoal)

3 proposals and a doubt:

1. Deprecate
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/blob/master/Bio/PopGen/SimCoal/Async.py
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/blob/master/Bio/PopGen/SimCoal/Cache.py
2. Delete the Simcoal tests
3. Amend the tutorial

The doubt: I would like to deprecate a class inside
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/blob/master/Bio/PopGen/SimCoal/Controller.py
But not the whole Controller (the fastsimcoal code is there).
Question: Is there a procedure for a partial deprecation?

Thanks,
T
