All,

If the API is backwards compatible, any scripts using 4.2 APIs should work
without modification on 4.3.  If they don't, then we either have a bug or
API breakage that requires a bump to 5.0.  Put another way, if we had an
API test suite, the 4.2 tagged version should completely pass on 4.3 though
it wouldn't exercise all of the API features.

Thanks,
-John
