+1, Of course! Add to back compat plugin!
EDIT: There are no internal uses of jQuery.fn.size()

+0, I think it is still used too much. 1.8 will remove some minor things, but it's probably not the right time to remove .size(). I could be wrong tho.

+1, Probably a good time to at least officially "mark it for death" er, deprecation, so people have ample time and then we pull it in 1.9?/2.0?
comment:8 Changed 6 years ago by
+1 Why was this added in the first place? It's the same number of characters as ".length".
comment:11 Changed 6 years ago by
+1, Deprecate sure; remove in the distant future if ever. This discussion will take 10x the number of bytes the actual method does, and removing it will cause random stuff to break for no good reason.

+0, It's weird to me to deprecate something that isn't going to get removed, but we already say .length is preferred in the docs.

+1, Deprecate, yes, but why delay? Why not drop it and offer it in a back compat plugin

+1 for removal. The only internal uses of this are in the test cases, and support can easily be added with a compatibility plugin. jQuery UI uses it in a couple of spots, but I put in a pull request to fix that.

Honestly, guys, who really cares? More words have already been spilt than this is worth. We do not need any more AOL-style +1s on this thread.

Clarifying the title to reflect the action taken in 1.8.
This could easily be included in a back-compat plugin (along with jQuery.browser )
