Hi Albert,
I see your point. Maintaining API backward-compatibility between 0.1.x
versions is important. But between backporting and accelerating 0.2.0
release, I opt for the later. I had a long discussion with
Bala over the weekend. We both feel, with some more effort, we can make
a 0.2.0 release itself.  What do you think?
