This could be broken into separate issues if that's more convenient.

• .toggle(function, function, ... ) removed
• jQuery.browser() removed
• .live() removed
• .die() removed
• jQuery.sub() removed
• .add()
• .addBack( selector ) replaces .andSelf()
• .after(), .before(), and .replaceWith() with disconnected nodes http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/13338
• .appendTo, .insertBefore, .insertAfter, and .replaceAll
• AJAX events should be attached to document
• Checkbox/radio state in a .trigger()ed "click" event
• Order of triggered "focus" events
• jQuery(htmlString) versus jQuery(selectorString)
• Events not fired by the .data() method; names with periods
• Ordering of disconnected nodes within a jQuery set
• Loading and running scripts inside HTML content
• .attr() versus .prop()
• $("input").attr("type", newValue) in oldIE
• "hover" pseudo-event
• .selector property on jQuery objects
• jQuery.attr()
• jQuery.ajax returning a JSON result of an empty string
• jQuery.proxy() context
• .data("events")
• Removed properties of the Event object

We never documented .data()-fired events and I haven't seen any complaints so I'm not going to document they were removed.

@dmethvin any chance you or someone else from the core team could finish this? "Ordering of disconnected nodes within a jQuery set" is interesting to me, since I recently hit a performance issue involving .add().

[dmethvin]

Where would be the right place to put the note about ordering? It applies to all methods. I think that .add() needs special notice since it's better to use $([ a, b ]) than $(a).add(b) if you want a specific order.

I'm not sure the best way to document the general rule, but just adding a sentence about the array usage not forcing DOM order is a step in the right direction. We use this in UI when we want to have a manually ordered set.

[dmethvin]

We can mention that in jQuery() then. Since we got rid of the special behavior of .before() etc on disconnected elements I think .add() is a somewhat unique lone survivor so I can mention it there.

Down to just three open tasks, nice.

I have some pr s on this but I didn't feel comfortable landing them blind

You can deploy manually to stage to test your changes or show them to others. Not great in the long run, but better then nothing. Ping me elsewhere if you need the credentials.
