Thanks Noah, this certainly addresses the semantic versioning issues,
and support windows for feature releases, however, I'm still unclear
about some other points.
How long do major branches get support? Are we forever stuck porting
security fixes to 1.0.x, or does this get retired at some
Ok, cleared up. Thanks Noah.

See this part of the doc I linked:
Each feature release will be supported for 12 months.

One item missing from this is support of existing versions. I'm not sure
if a timeline exists for this, but it should be well understood what the
support window will look like for old versions.

I'm probably missing something here, but why can't we land BigCouch in a
single dual-release?
Timeline:
* BigCouch lands on master
* No date — it happens when it happens
* We simultaneously release 2.0.0 and 1.X.0
* This happens at the next available regular release date
* There's _no_ reason, that I can see, that this deprecation has _to
happen_ 3 months prior.

Yeah, that works too, it is the same procedure, just compressed some
more. I don’t think we intended anything special with an
From an organisational point of view, it seems much more simple to me to do
this simultaneous deprecate bits in the 1.x line while starting a new 2.x
line thing. The bit I don't know is whether this makes sense from a
technical point of view. Your plan, for instance, spaces out the API

Actually. Sorry. Let me reconsider that actually.
I think the important thing I am getting at is that if we can do the API
changes and the BigCouch merge at the same time, then we have two important
releases to do:
* 1.x line with the depreciation warnings
* 2.x line with the new stuff
* Uh, _ deprecation_ warnings. ;)

I understand what you are saying, and I agree with it.
But the API only release seems unnecessary to me. If the version numbers
are not important (and they are not) then let's just treat them that way
and ship BigCouch in 2.0.0. Actually going out of our way to make a bunch

If the BigCouch merge is ready for the next feature release date, then I
would probably need a little more convincing if the proposal was to delay
it by 3 months so that we could cut 2.0.0 to make a point about version
numbers. If BigCouch is not ready by the next feature release date, then I

It's not going away. It still exists on the back end interface, but it's the
admins job to purge at all replicas. The AP clustering model cannot guarantee a
cluster-wide purge.
The reason BigCouch doesn't support purge is that we need to synchronise
replicas of the same shard. Purging removes
That said, it would be great to reap state that we will never need again, it
just mustn't happen before every replica has seen it.
