Kino still uses the legacy raw1394 iso interface for capture by default; however, it can also still use dv1394. I will accellerate the adoption of the new raw1394 interface since I have already done this for dvgrab 2.0. Cinelerra supports libiec61883 now.

Unfortunately, gstreamer still uses legacy raw1394 iso interface, but I can nag someone at Fluendo. I think another high profile app that might be affected is GnomeMeeting/Ekiga, but I have not kept close track of it.

Also, I have not released a version of libraw1394 that contains the deprecation warnings, but I can do so this weekend. And then another release when the removed kernel interfaces are released that removes the functions.

Then I suggest we adjust the date in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt (increment by 1 year?) and also list kino and gstreamer as affected application programs there.

It appears from grep'ing through the sources of Ekiga 2.0.1 that it does not access (lib)raw1394 by itself.
