we should also point out that our ops guys here at yahoo! don't like
the break at major clause. i imagine when we do the next major release
we will try to be one release backwards compatible. (although we
shouldn't promise it until we successfully do it once :)

Historically major releases can have non-bw compatible changes. However if
you look back through the release history you'll see that the last time that
happened was oct 2008, when we moved the project from sourceforge to apache.

Looking forward, I don't think that anybody has even proposed anything that
would require a major release yet.
That should mean that you have quite a bit of lifetime ahead on the 3.x

even when a 4.0 is released, it is unlikely to have enough killer
