Notable changes

-disabledeprecation removal

In release 1.0.9 we implemented automatic deprecation of zcashd software versions made by the Zcash Company. The configuration option -disabledeprecation was added as a way for users to specifically choose to stay on a particular software version. However, it incorrectly implied that deprecated releases would still be supported.

This release removes the -disabledeprecation option, so that zcashd software versions made by the Zcash Company will always shut down in accordance with the defined deprecation policy (currently 16 weeks after release). Users who wish to use a different policy must now specifically choose to either:

• edit and compile the source code themselves, or
• obtain a software version from someone else who has done so (and obtain support from them).

Either way, it is much clearer that the software they are running is not supported by the Zcash Company.
