Yep, but here's where theory and real-life meet. The new API requires
changes to the database schema (e.g. new tables for changesets,
changing users columns to changesetids on many tables) and you only
get a limited number of times you can take the database off-line to
implement things before everyone starts getting pissed off. So API0.6
includes more than just changes to the XML API.

Cheers,
Andy
