missing documentation on promises

[ErichBSchulz]

hey :) noting this #2221

and this deprecation notice (here)

Deprecation Notice: The jqXHR.success(), jqXHR.error(), and jqXHR.complete() callbacks are deprecated as of jQuery 1.8. To prepare your code for their eventual removal, use jqXHR.done(), jqXHR.fail(), and jqXHR.always() instead.

just wondering what the plan is?

no mention of promises here: http://backbonejs.org/

There's some discussion going on #2489 about adding promises to Backbone core. Feel free to chime in there.

So this is actually a red herring. Backbone only relies on the success and error options that are passed to $.ajax, not the methods being referred to in your issue. The methods in question are aliases to methods on $.Deferred and have been marked for deprecation. The success and error options have not been deprecate.

Those warnings are likely in your application and aren't a by-product of Backbone's use of jQuery.

@wookiehangover cool thanks. Just for clarification notice is in the jquery doc, they weren't error messages.
