Is that how everyone sees it going?

For my money, it sounds like the SAT differences will be significant
enough that we can't turn it on by default, so we have to leave the
old resolver in, so we can/should ship a 2.1 alpha without it.
Thoughts?
Yes, I agree. I think Jason put it nicely - let's focus on spending
the time getting artifact handling right (whatever the version might
be where that lands). At that time, we can either make a once only
backwards compat break or a compat mode and spend the time making sure
it's easy for people to move on to it.
In the mean time, let's start getting the 2.1 alpha out, focus on
backwards compat in the current artifact handling and core, and start
exposing the new core features and stability improvements to users.
Cheers,
Brett
