Juergen,
How to understand the comments at:

Please also notice that extensions can't be migrated because of underlying
technical changes (removing Berkeley DB)".
So it means all the previous extension developed against previous OOo
version can't work against AOO 3.4?
no that is false and a misleading information, I will change it.
At the beginning we had problems with the migration of installed
extensions. But this is fixed now and former installed extensions should
be migrated.
And extension developed for earlier OpenOffice versions should still
work. But it can always happen that other changes will make problems.
Extensions in C++ can make more problems but often a simple rebuild
should solve such problems
Today I would always suggest to use a max version dependency and would
check my extension for the next version. This way it is possible to
ensure an always working extension.
