changes right now? And what are their replacements if any?

I suppose std.xml is one. What about std.regex/std.regexp,
std.stream/std.stdio/std.cstream/std.socketstream, std.bind,
std.boxer/std.variant?

BTW: http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/phobos/std_gregorian.html is in the
menu but gives 404.

Thanks

std.gregorian was never really finished. It's mostly a stub, I think. 
std.datetime replaces both it and std.date. It's in the latest version of
Phobos 
in git, but it hasn't been in an acutal release yet.

Sorry -- just wanted to clarify that features are "deprecated" not
"depreciated".

"Depreciated" means that it has lost its (monetary) value. Assets are
depreciated for tax purposes.

"Deprecated" means that it is not approved.

The words are closely related, and it's easy to write one meaning the other
(I've had to backspace and retype several times in this short note). But they
are different words.
