I don't see contradictory here... unless, you mean that I said that the
code that uses the component should not be changed because of
implementation changes... and that we have to choose between release
always or never, etc. I have pointed out later in that mail, that the
solution I have found is a *compromise*, and it does break the "release
always or never", and changes it to "never release, except if a Role is
explicitly stated to be 'manually released', which should be avoided.".

Then I think it should be tied to the Specification. (See the other mail
where I explain why.)
