OK.  That seems to be me. :-)
However, I did suggest making a note on the subject line of the e-svn
mailing list mails whenever the API is touched.  Something like "[API
CHANGE]".  The subject line is where people, at least me, scan quickly
for something interesting.  If the particular commit touches whatever
I'm working on, I would expand the mail and read the commit message.

But I guess maybe there's some technical difficulty with it to make it
automatic.  Don't know...  I hope there's a better way that draws
attention to warn EFL users about API changes since API changes are
quite _scary_ when the application in development is to be shipped
commercially...

The heads-up warning is appreciated. :-)
