We're still developing Polymer 2 applications but considering the move.

However there's one big questions that comes up. What to do with 
third-party components that still rely on Polymer 2? I know there's the 
Polymer Modularizer but shall we really convert third-party code so that it 
works in our newly ported Polymer 3 apps? That doesn't feel very good as 
you suddenly end up with maintaining foreign code and have to look after 
updates and fixes for those components yourself. 

There are piles of good components around at webcomponents.org which are 
still in Polymer 2 and you never know if they will ever be ported to 
Polymer 3.

Are there alternatives to the conversion?

Another worry: what happens with the next major update? Will we need to 
port all our our components (which are certainly hundreds already) with 
every new major release? That really puts a huge burden on developers (and 
project leads looking for the budget).

I understand that the standard itself is still moving but these questions 
should be considered before such breaking changes are set in place.

Thanks for your thoughts on this,

Joern
