Correct. I don't think we need to have as strict an RTC policy as httpd - but the only issue is that any change that is backported can not break binary compatibility at *all*. Bumping the minor version (1.0->1.1) can add new functions, but it can't change any existing functions at all. And, bumping the major version (i.e. 2.0) causes all bets to be off. =) -- justin
