I'd like to better understand what our policy on backwards compatibility at the package level is. For OAK-6265 I would remove two already exported methods which means that the exported version for org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.spi.mount would move from 3.0.0 to 4.0.0 . Is that acceptable for an unstable release? Or should I rather deprecate those and keep backwards compatibility? Thanks, Robert
