This is not our decision, it's the Mozilla toolkit that is dropping
support for that after 3 years of no well-maintained new major release
with that infrastructure - it's just that SeaMonkey did take quite
long to do an actual release based on the new code.
No matter the cause, the effect will be the same. I'm not sure this will
cause many to change their upgrade plans though as most will be unaware
of it until too late.

Well, manual migration of the profile is not that difficult, and has the
advantage of removing the cruft of multiple version upgrades. It might
not be the worst thing.
On the other hand, maybe it would be well to keep a link to 2.0 on the
website, specifically geared for new 1.1.x upgraders. Instruct them to
install 2.0, migrate their data, then check for updates to newer versions.
