Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti at gmail.com> added the comment:

The deprecation notes in the doc should be quite easy to find and can be more verbose, but there are a few cases where the deprecation is not about a specific function but something more "abstract" (e.g. some syntax change, or the "Overriding __eq__ blocks inheritance of __hash__ in 3.x" reported by the OP).
Listing new deprecations in the what's new it's a good idea, but otherwise a clear message (that also suggests how to fix the problem) and a deprecation note in the doc (using the '.. deprecated::' directive) should be enough.
