+1 on 3.0 Dsv2 stable can still evolve in across major releases. DataFrame, Dataset, dsv1 and a lot of other major features all were developed throughout the 1.x and 2.x lines.
I do want to explore ways for us to get dsv2 incremental changes out there more frequently, to get feedback. Maybe that means we apply additive changes to 2.4.x; maybe that means making another 2.5 release sooner. I will start a separate thread about it.
