One paragraph explanation of the deprecation.
Why are we doing this? What are the problems with the deprecated feature? What is the replacement functionality?
This is the bulk of the RFC. Explain the use-cases that deprecated functionality covers, and for each use-case, describe the transition path.
Describe it in enough detail for someone who uses the deprecated functionality to understand, for someone to write the deprecation guide, and for someone familiar with the implementation to implement.
Would the acceptance of this proposal mean the ReactiveUI guides must be re-organized or altered? Does it change how ReactiveUI is taught to new users at any level?
Does it mean we need to put effort into highlighting the replacement functionality more? What should we do about documentation, in the guides related to this feature?
How should this deprecation be introduced and explained to existing ReactiveUI users?
Why should we not do this? Please consider the impact on teaching ReactiveUI, on the integration of this feature with other existing and planned features, on the impact of the API churn on existing apps, etc.
There are tradeoffs to choosing any path, please attempt to identify them here.
What other designs have been considered? What is the impact of not doing this?
Optional, but suggested for first drafts. What parts of the design are still TBD?
