I think being experimental, the module is subject to incompatible change anyway, and there seems to be a catch 22 situation here - the module is currently broken, but the fix cannot be applied without an MMN bump (if it was a fully fledged module). I think to break this catch 22 situation, it seems reasonable to apply the changes to v2.0 without an MMN bump as the code is experimental. Any other thoughts? Regards, Graham --
