Deprecated functions in Akismet

[johnbillion]

Akismet uses __ngettext() which is deprecated and should be replaced with _n()

Line 932 and line 942 of akismet.php. I won't patch it as Akismet is an external.

Oh we've got _c() in there too (replaced by _x()). Line 951.

Actually it's just ocurred to me that these are probably in here to maintain backwards compatibility. Feel free to close as wontfix.

This should be reported to the ​Plugins trac, It would however be nice, if someone was to handle the tickets created there for Akismet

A few weeks ago, I submitted a patch to ryan that updates Akismet to use 3.0 code (while maintaining back compat to the earliest of versions). I believe it was passed onto the Akismet team at Automattic.

Really? I submitted a ticket to use file level docs a year ago and if it hasn't been committed, then I'll be darned. Probably should email it to Ryan instead of depending on the Plugins Trac.

LOL ​http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/920 I guess 19 months ago.

I think this is fixed now.
