I think we would be quite nervous about removing all support for the old classes. I guess I was misunderstanding exactly what was being attempted in the 0-9 support branch. I thought we would be aiming for supporting the 0-9 spec as publicly released, not just the WIP parts. Certainly we could not deploy anything in this state.
For those of us supporting QPID implementations in production, I think we should aim to support the published version of the specification. Otherwise we should wait until the specification deprecates the old framing and Request/Response ceases to be WIP (0-10?). - Rob
