I wanted to stick with 0.3. I was under the impression (from thread "Re: Announcing Julia 0.3.0 final.") that the PPA would change to 0.4 only when a kind of prerelease is nearing.
In a phase of disruptive changes, it's difficult to tell whether the manual is not quite accurate or the behavior is new and intended. This will make clarifying the manual infeasible for outsiders. Will the NEWS.md file immediately document the (disruptive or non-disruptive) changes? That would be very helpful, even if the change is withdrawn later on. Also, every NEWS entry could include a date to make it easier to follow the development.
