I say this because I'm fairly sure there's a lot of us that use 1.9 as if it

Yep /me guilty too, I've been promoting using 1.9 also here in The Netherlands (actually to be able our national wmts services...)

How about we update the splash screen with a suitable 'this is going
to break some eggs' warning....?

Good idea! But isn't that 'too late' already? A user seeing that splash already installed the version breaking his eggs over his working version.... Or we should start showing it now already before the real api-breaks?

Maybe we do the warning in one of the first screens of the msi-installer also?

The osgeo4w does not have a possibility to warn users/upgraders is it? Maybe put the nightlies for osgeo4w on hold for a while?

And all qgis bloggers unite ;-) Let's all blog about this change...

ps I'm really anxious to see all this new things going to happen.. Thanks all!
