I know the company line on the SOC Schema Evolution code is that it will be integrated into the trunk after enough people have tested it, but I think this creates a chicken and egg problem. People aren't going to use it until it's in trunk and it won't be in trunk until enough people test it.
Does it impact normal use without using schema evolution? In other words, could it be integrated into trunk with the proviso that "The Schema Evolution feature should be considered beta. If you use this feature, please test the results carefully and report any bugs you find. If you don't use Schema Evolution, you shouldn't be affected." I'd really like to try it, but I don't have time to keep up to date with two branches.
