Hi, We made a lot of changes in 1.0 that broke compatibility with old versions of gemfire for various reasons (package renaming, changing membership system). I just wanted to confirm that starting with 1.1, we're planning on maintaining client/server, peer-to-peer, WAN and disk backwards compatibility with older versions geode as outlined in this wiki page:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GEODE/Managing+Backward+Compatibility https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GEODE/Criteria+for+Code+Submissions Now that we have 1.0 out the door, we need to be more careful about introducing changes that might break compatibility if we're going to stick to these guidelines. We also probably should introduce some tests that check compatibility with 1.0. -Dan
