Thanks Adrien for addressing one half of the back compat problem. Unfortunately, the "branch_8x" branch is still live and running hot, same as before. So I have to again give my -1 VOTE, due to the fact that backwards compatibility can't be guaranteed. Given that it is being expanded to TWO major releases, this is a major commitment that we have to take seriously. At a ~ 2.5 year average major release rate, that's up to *7.5 years* to fully remove a mistake, for example.
So I really do think we need things in order here, despite some backwards neanderthal thinking that wants to always stay on the same release and java 1.4 and so on.
