In 2.1 practically I think it means supporting multiple versions of

People need to be able to switch over to 2.1 without changing their
POMs or there will be a hue and a cry of such enormous volume we'll
get eviscerated.
The schema will change, and we're going to have to gracefully deal
with a few versions.
I was actually hoping you'd say that. If the pom is open for
modification then I would really want to see a "compatible-with" section
so that a project can declare what prior versions of itself it is
compatible with and possibly at what level (i.e. api, configuration,
runtime, etc.).
I know you don't necessarily agree with this, but I consider this
absolutely necessary to make sure appropriate versions are being used.
