Mmmmm. There are so few active devs, that I think you have to be very careful about introducing breaking changes. People will get frustrated if breakages elsewhere prevent them working on the favoured project. (I'm sure you're aware of this, so I'll stop making noise on this subject hereafter). Of course, a real alternative to breaking head would be to essentially freeze head and require development to continue in your branch. People could then port stuff from the experimental branch back to a stable head. There seems to be a lot of good stuff going on at the moment; would be a shame to slow that down. Just a thought (and not meant to irritate.) Angus
