Yes, I know about this. How about I rephrase my request: "Please reimplement the 0.6 surfaces API for 0.7 on top of the new views feature, marking the API deprecated in the process." > John (fargo) is working on getting the shindig implementation > working correctly. As we try to get developers to upgrade to 0.7 it would be helpful to allow a cleaner upward upgrade path by deprecating functionality before removing it. At the very least javascript calls should not bomb, causing the entire app to die. Of course another option is to freeze opensocial-reference for each API release. Perhaps we could create seperate features directories for opensocial-reference-0.6 opensocial-reference-0.7, instead of just 'opensocial-reference' Right now developers are complaining that we're breaking things in every release, and this just makes it harder to get traction with these people. -- Paul Lindner hi5 Architect [EMAIL PROTECTED]
