We are not changing APIs for the sake of breaking them. We are trying to gradually move to better and more performant APIs. As others have said there is now some work going on in the branch-1 branch to stabilize the API layer for 1.x series of releases. Master branch is scheduled for 2.x series and accordingly it may contain breaking changes.
branch-1 contains a lot of deprecated APIs that are scheduled to be removed in 2.x series. Please take a look at the new replacement API in branch-1 to see whether they make sense or not.
