Whatever happened to renumbering all symbol versioned libraries

for ABI breakage.
That's what I'd like to see happen (so.0 => symboled lib). Ken felt it
was too be late to do for 7.0.
But if we do it for 8.0, we'd have to have a compat7x port which put
symlinks in place. So the upgrade path is a little rougher than we
should have for symboled libs. Thus we won't get the symboled libs done
painlessly right.
Ugh, that's awful. We should do it now and be done with it if
we are going to do it at all...
Why do we need to change the number at all? Can't we stay at the
current number and let it like this "forever"?
Bye,
Alexander.
