Yeah, I'm just wondering if there have been any commits yet that have
fundamentally changed the API's (ByteBuffer in particular) that might
"get" me if you know what I mean. I'm fine with the changes I'm
hearing, don't get me wrong, I'm just trying to quantify (very
loosely speaking) the work I'll have to do when I do an svn update
and build ;-) Thanks for the reply!
The fundamental changes to the IoBuffer API very likely won't happen
for 2.0, since 2.0 is close to being complete.
At this stage, I think the best approach will be for the community to
get 2.0 out the door, and then we can look at more radical API changes
for 3.0..

Hi Peter,
we have discussed both options a month ago, and there were quite a
concensus to get these changes into a postponed 2.0, instead of
delivering a 2.0 and including changes into a 3.0.
Now the environment has changed a bit in the last few weeks, and we have
a lot of thing to do in order to get a 2.0 out, even if we don't include
the ByteBuffer rewrite.
IMHO, we can go for a documented 2.0 for the moment (and it will take a
while), and start a branch for 3.0.
