ABI compat covers inside 2.2.x or 2.0.x, not between the two branches. Quite a few things changed between 2.0 and 2.2 - most notably the whole auth system was refactored which is making some vendors of 3rd party modules stay with 2.0 (Weblogic comes to mind). Whether this is enough to keep 2.0.x around, I don't know - that's hard to tell, but be aware that you'll be losing support for some modules. vh Mads Toftum -- http://soulfood.dk
