 So to summarize the discussion so far:

 * nobody is strongly arguing for an instability period after the bump,
    and there are good reasons against it, therefore we should NOT have
    one

 * the bump can be done either as bump-then-remove or remove-then-bump
      * there are advantages and disadvantages for both of those, nobody
        expressed a strong preference for either, so you can keep this as
        is

 Please correct me if I misunderstood or missed something, or somebody
 has a new opinion.

Since the instability period doesn't seem popular, if anyone has some patches
for ABI changes (enum value or field offset changes, removing avpriv_
functions we forgot about, etc), then please send them asap so i can push
them all at the same time.

Ok, I can send the frame number changes tomorrow. When do you plan to do
the actual bump? I assumed the last 5.x release should be branched first.

Why? 5.1 was already branched out.

And is missing 6 months of development.

So you want us to release both 6.0 and 5.2 at the same time?
I don't get it.

I don't see too much benefit in releasing 6.0 right now just because we
bumped API, beacuse API bump typically means API removal, not addition.

Because that's what we agreed on?
Do a major release every year in Dec/Jan with an ABI/API breakage at that time.

If you want to do a 5.2, why not, but I don't see the need, especially if 5.1 
is the LTS one. But why not...
But not doing what we said about major releases is a big breakage of trust.

Okay, maybe its just me, but I missed this decision, and I don't remember any discussions regarding it. Can you give me some pointers?

Thanks,
Marton
