Generally you know what's being changed when you roll out new code. If the format of some keys/values are being changed, you should intuitively know exactly how to handle it. The best method is to have code be intutive about getting back values it doesn't understand anymore, and being wary of changing the format of popular or high value keys. -Dormando
