I agree on that, but I disagree on the age of the "old stack". For example,
I'm running the Mandriva rolling-release right now and I can't compile kdepim
and kdepimlibs because they haven't packaged yet shared-desktop-ontologies
0.7. That was released less than one month ago.

I'd say that hard dependencies need to be at least a couple of months old,
unless there's a very good reason for doing otherwise. And in that case, it
should be announced in advance so that distributions and users can prepare
themselves.

   * Shared desktop ontologies (0.6.51 or higher)

     Desktop ontologies
     Ontologies necessary for the Nepomuk semantic desktop.
