The bug report that introduced this change claimed 100% backward compatability
for at least one year, later changed to until 4.0 came out, whenever that will
be.
You're misreading that. Backwards compatibility in the code will be maintained
for at least one year after the 4.0 release, when the code changes take effect,
and would not be removed until 4.1 is released if it has not been released by
that point (which is unlikely - 4.0 and 4.1 released within one year?). So if
4.1 was released within a year of 4.0, it would include backwards compatibility
and that would remain until at least 4.2
Unfortunately some rule name changes are making it out ahead of the 4.0 release.
We're working on addressing this, it should be a temporary condition.
Am I granted an "I told you so?" The results coming out of this betray a
breathtaking level of arrogance and overt racism.
