This time will be up to the downstreams to take

We did in the past.
Needless to say distributors then did not pick up the updated releases
of those softwares making it sort of a meaningless endeavor.

Patching dozens of downstream projects is clearly not in the scope of what

But keeping the API usable is. Regularly breaking the majority of reverse
