Comment(by realityexists):

 If this the above is too hard then I'd suggest a 3-stage approach:

 Release N adds a DEBUG message, ie. "you should start thinking about
 fixing it, but you still have time"
 Release N+1 change it to a WARNING message, ie. "you really should fix
 this now"
 Release N+2 removes the function

 This way, even if nobody saw the DEBUG message and developers didn't
 become aware of the deprecation until release N+1, they can still change
 the code straight-away as long as all the users are no more than 1 major
 version behind (release N).
