The meaning of the major.minor mmn differs. They aren't mutually exclusive. >I'm in favour of keeping AP20 until this one is changed, i.e. vote -0 on >that change right now. If we revert (we can) then every bump to 2.0 major mmn (lets say by a 3rd party who changes the API internally) results in a date which is forward of 2.1's mmn. This is simply badness. Since 2.0 modules, via the evolving API, no longer remain safely compatible with 2.1, I'm of the mind that the mmn's should be segregated by MODULE_MAGIC_COOKIE. Bill
