Min, I think everybody knows I am all for less features per release. I don't think you are making a bad call, per se. I do think we should consider if we can come up with a total picture of what 5.x would require af the api, though. Can you add to the discussion what it is that is keeping you from implementing. And what requirements you have for the 5.0 api so we can start devising the architectural guidelines for the new api. more and more calls for a 5.0 are coming up lately so let's move forward. (changing title)
