I wasn't aware of this, and it is relevant, so thanks for pointing
it out. I'm still not decided on what approach would be best for
Manila. I have experience dealing with API compatibility issues from
other projects and I think the main thing want to avoid is
supporting too many versions at the same time. There will be cases
where supporting 2 versions in parallel will be needed, but I'd
prefer never to need more than 2. I'm not sure the Nova proposal
helps towards that end.<br>
