hmm, is an external that works fine with pd-0.33 "deprecated"? just because pd-0.33 might be considered "deprecated"? after all pd-0.33 is still available. in this case, pd-0.39 might be deprecated as well (even though the current pd-exteded is based on that). are all externals that work only with the latest release of pd-extended (but not with 0.40 or 0.41 (once this gets out)) to be deprecated then?
i would rather have a more positive field "works with:" (last known pd-version to work with)
how about the other way round? "requires:" (pd>0.30)
what with externals that change with Pd? (v1.0 works with pd-0.37..0.39; v2.0 works with 0.40..)
