I guess there are some other logical alternatives to consider: 1) s/2.2/3.0 s/3.0/4.0 2) abandon 2.2 release Option 1) may not be that bad - saves work reverting the incompatible stuff remaining and solves Luc's (and anyone else who has been using trunk/2_X) problem and also keeps us consistent

Hi, In general: I understand that removing e.g. functions to an interface is (seriously) breaking compatibility. Why is it just as bad to add e.g. functions to an interface? As far as I know, the binaries are still compatible, so where does this "adding breaks compatibility" stem from? And is it o
