[dev] Re: [core] Horde 3.x plans

[Jan Schneider]

Moving this to the dev@ list to hear some more opinions.

The discussion is about suffixing application names with a short token that
is related to the Horde version this application is compatible with. The
goal is to make it easier for people to follow which application version
goes with which Horde version.

Another thing comes into play: we considered keeping backward compatibility
only within minor versions, i.e. IMP 4.1 might no longer work with Horde
3.0, but would require Horde 3.1.

So in the end this would lead to version strings like "IMP H3.1 (4.1.3)". Is
this still what we want for simplicity?
