I want to know the answer to the following question:
When were the mini-A connector and and the mini-AB receptacle connector depreceated?
All the background I'm provided with is that "These include the now-deprecated (i.e. de-certified but standardized) mini-A and mini-AB connectors; mini-B connectors are still supported, but are not OTG-compliant (On The Go, used in mobile devices).". Is that enough to answer the question?
