The idea of a new project with lower stability expectations worries me. The idea of backwards compatibility and stability have been a major part of our continued use of the library. Code I wrote >5 years ago still works unchanged with no problem, and I would be loath to lose that. That's not to say that I have anything against the DBIC2 idea. I just want to be clear on what kind of stability/compatibility expectations we would have. I'm know David doesn't mean that it would become a hot mess, but I'd rather not chip away at the stability expectations. It's not like DBIC never introduced bugs with new versions, they were simply fixed fairly quickly when they occurred. Having a freeze and then a split sounds okay, except that I normally associate that with a different direction, which isn't something I'd greatly like to see. If it's purely for non technical reasons then fair enough.
