When you finish, use GNOME_MAINTAINER_MODE_DEFINES macro ( included in gnome-common ) in your configure.ac files, so you will be notified when you use a new deprecated symbol.

Also, take a look to the awesome Frederic Peters graphs to track the status of your module: http://www.gnome.org/~fpeters/299.html
