 bytes - Perl pragma to force byte semantics rather than character semantics
 
-=head1 DEPRECATED
+=head1 NOTICE
 
 This pragma reflects early attempts to incorporate Unicode into perl and
-has since been superceded. It breaks encapulation (i.e. it exposes the
-innards of how perl happens to be currently storing a string), and use of
-this module for anything other than debugging purposes is strongly
-discouraged. If you feel that the functions here within might be useful
-for your application, this possibly indicates a mismatch beteen your
-mental model of Perl Unicode and the current reality. In that case, you
-wish to peruse some of the perl Unicode documentation: L<perluniintro>,
-L<perlunitut>, L<perlunifaq> and L<perlunicode>.
