Hi,
Well, 4.6.0 breaks compatibility with some extensions and leaves it to
the admin to find out if and which those may be. That just doesn't cut
it. I can't go through a long list of extensions and check if
everything still works. The least one would expect if such a drastic
step has been taken is to support the admin in identifying what is and
isn't still working, through the log or the extension manager.
Jigal already pointed it out, why it is not dramatic at all.
The fault is yours and the extension authors (to formulate it a bit
exaggerated):
* Extension author is responsible for testing his extension and setting
the version dependencies correctly.
* Your job as user/integrator/developer to make sure that everything is
compatible when upgrading to a new software. This is not limited to
TYPO3, but e.g. also applies to your operating system.
Or should the core team (to precise: the hand full of active members)
review 5000 extensions?
Don't get me wrong, but it's just the usual thing of "upgrading software".
Kind regards
Steffen
