The biggest problem you can have running on 6.0 is expecting that your app has
all the permissions it requests, whereas starting with 6.0 the user can revoke
some of those permissions, even if you target an earlier version.
That is a great opportunity to ask yourself for every single permission you
request: "Can I justify to the end-user which exact functionality is associated
with this permission?"
As a smaller problem, 6.0 introduces more possible density values for
supported-screens (360 and 420). If you use it anyway in spite of all the
warnings, you probably know about it, and probably already know how to fix it.
As you work toward fixing those, you'll probably need to compile against the
6.0 SDK itself. In turn, that means that some deprecated APIs will disappear
(Apache HTTP stack). If you can't refactor your code to use a more modern HTTP
implementation, there's an official documented workaround (but I don't remember
the URI off-hand).
