As far as some future version breaking compatibility, I favour a bigger jump in the major number: 3.2 -> 4.0. This is server software after all, and some people may prefer to maintain an older version for a longer period, foregoing new features in favour of the tried and true. Incrementing the major number makes it more obvious that an upgrade may cause some problems. But I guess that discussion is sometime *way* in the future. :)
I also have been thinking that a jump to version 4.0 would be better for what is being speculated on for the next release. Graham
