Then when is the right time? We already have a list of deprecated features, and I believe some have
already waited 4 years.
Are there particular breaking changes that you think would be ready in 2 years time that
wouldn't be ready in 1?
I've argued before that there should be a roadmap and a cycle for major releases, and if not,
then some agreement on what triggers one, but we've so far not managed to agree either.
