I would like to know about the compatibility between upcoming versions of KO3. I have heard that once 3.1 comes in, it won't be easy to simply upgrade to it from kohana 3.0 (Wordpress upgrade is pretty swift from 2 to version 3)
If I create my project in KO3 (currently using 3.0.6.2), what are the chances that my project will be easily upgradable to 3.1 or above versions without breaking anything ?
Please answer if you are a real pro on KO3 or part of the development team.. This is important.
Major versions (eg: 3.0 to 3.1) may change the API. Currently, the biggest API change will be splitting the Request class into Request and Response, as well as changes to Request that allow external routing. This also implies that the Remote class will be significantly modified to removed completely in favor of external requests and responses.
You can keep track of the changes scheduled for 3.1 by following the 3.1 roadmap.
