* A slice of [[scala.reflect.macros.blackbox.Context the Scala macros context]] that exposes
- * enclosing trees (method, class, compilation unit and currently compiled application),
+ * enclosing trees (method, class, compilation unit and currently compiled macro application),
* the enclosing position of the macro expansion, as well as macros and implicits
* that are currently in-flight.
+ *
+ * Starting from Scala 2.11.0, the APIs to get the trees enclosing by the current macro application are deprecated,
+ * and the reasons for that are two-fold. Firstly, we would like to move towards the philosophy of locally-expanded macros,
+ * as it has proven to be important for understanding of code. Secondly, within the current architecture of scalac,
+ * we are unable to have c.enclosingTree-style APIs working robustly. Required changes to the typechecker would greatly
+ * exceed the effort that we would like to expend on this feature given the existence of more pressing concerns at the moment.
+ * This is somewhat aligned with the overall evolution of macros during the 2.11 development cycle, where we played with
+ * `c.introduceTopLevel` and `c.introduceMember`, but at the end of the day decided to reject them.
+ *
+ * If you're relying on the now deprecated APIs, consider reformulating your macros in terms of completely local expansion
+ * and/or joining a discussion of a somewhat related potential language feature at [[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/scala-debate/f4CLmYShX6Q]].
+ * We also welcome questions and suggestions on our mailing lists, where we would be happy to further discuss this matter.
