No it's not misleading at all: I meant that if you have a running 0.10.x 
project, even non-trivial with lots of plugins etc., you can give a try 
to 0.11 on that project by installing the *additional* packages needed 
by 0.11 (i.e. Genshi). If for some reason,  you're not satisfied with 
the transition, like some of the plugins you're depending on are neither 
working with nor yet ported to 0.11, or you depend on the old-style 
macros which won't work anymore, or you have some other problems, *then* 
it's safe to go back to 0.10.x on the same environment, because you 
presumably still have all the software needed to run 0.10, as nobody 
told you that you should uninstall Clearsilver when switching to 0.11. 
Quite to the contrary, Clearsilver based plugins are still supported in 
0.11.

My comment was perhaps more understandable by people who experienced the 
transition from 0.9.x to 0.10dev, as the database schema was changed 
between those releases. So once you had upgraded an environment from 0.9 
to 0.10, there was no way back, unless you reverted to the backup. I 
simply wanted to point out that there's no such difference between 0.10 
and 0.11, beside the caveat concerning 0.10.4.

A successful migration should of course take care of converting the 
old-style macros to new-style macros, and take care of selecting 0.11 
compatible plugins. There's still some time to go before a 0.11 release, 
even a beta, so it's not necessarily a bad idea to have a try and see 
what is the extent of work required. In some cases, you might see that 
it "just works" and you could even happily run a Trac 0.11dev 
installation like some happy few out there ;-)  (e.g. see 
http://trac.pocoo.org)
