Hi, Org promises to support the last three Emacs releases. However, it is less clear what is our policy wrt third-party packages.
We do need third-party packages, for example, in babel backends. Sometimes, we have to make changes to the ob-*.el files in order to accommodate changes in the required third-party packages. Like in recent changes to ob-scheme where `run-geiser' function is now obsolete upstream. Should we try to support obsolete functions/variables in third-party packages? Should we try to work around breaking changes and support both before/after package versions? The answer is not obvious as older Emacs versions might not be supported by some third-party packages. Then, logically, we have to support older package versions compatible with the oldest Emacs version we support. But it might be hard to keep track of such scenarios.
