If I release a final 1.0 version of the API by the end of this year, it will be harder to reach these two goals at the same time: - Ensure backward compatibility of user applications (goal of a stable API) - Leave the API open enough for discussion with the JSR expert group > The version number surely depends on you? Sure, but if a JSR proposal is submitted, it means that the final state of the API will be the result of the work of the expert group. So I just don't want to put a stick in the ground and say: "1.0 is already/nearly released, so whatever we decide in this group has to be backward compatible with 1.0". I hope that clarifies my position. Best regards, Jerome
