This gets back to my point earlier. There is a cost associated with
not making the call early on. Up to the point where you make the
decision to bump the major version, you have to do everything twice,
and the first of each iteration is usually pretty cumbersome. This
represents wasted resources on both the framework-side and the
client-side. Whereas if you can reasonably predict that you'll
eventually come to that decision, you can save yourself quite a bit
of hassle and just "do it right the first time" (to quote Mike Holmes).
What I'm saying is Helios is less than a month old and we're seeing
these sort of issues surface. I suspect it's because the Helios
release marked the start of more wide-spread adoption. Do you
honestly think we're going to get through the next 11 months with all
these new adopters and not have enough challenging architectural
issues to warrant the major version bump?
Anyway, that's my last comment on this matter.
