Issue Summary
Okay, I'm probably doing something wrong here, but I need your help!
I am using og 5.x-7.3 and views 5.x-1.6, and panels 5.x-2.0-beta5 (the latest of everything as of this writing). 17 minutes and 43 seconds into Outlandish Josh's OG screencast (http://blip.tv/file/789296), og panels allows the user to select 'NODE CONTENT' under Custom after clicking the + sign in the panels2 interface.
This does not appear for me! I suspected a problem in my system so I installed Drupal 5 on a reference machine with the same configuration of modules mentioned above. Same problem! What am I doing wrong? I need to include a particular node in my pane.
Thanks in advance!

#1
legacy node module in panels
#2
Moshe,
Geez, yes, of course! Also, the description of Legacy node panes says
Allows embedding specific nodes into panes without using contexts; this module is deprecated and should only be used if necessary
Depends on: Panels (enabled)
Why deprecated? What is the (current) recommended way? I'm following Josh's video mentioned earlier, allowing end users to add node content to panes.
Thanks again Moshe!

re-file to panels in case they want to change that lousy description.
#4
Yeah, I think this issue seals it for me, it must be at least the fifth time this has come up. It's time to change that description, deprecated is just too strong a word to have in the module description. From the perspective of the panels API, it's true, but with the way that panels must necessarily interact with a lot of client modules, it just doesn't make sense to mark it as deprecated in a place where other modules, who might really, or at least arguably, need that functionality aren't able to have a say about it.
#5
OK, committed some more forgiving text.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for two weeks with no activity.
