> Starting from now users should expect more frequent releases of major versions as we move fast and break things to bring you even better experience.
I was in the process of evaluating Celery for a project, and it was looking promising, but this sentence alone might have prompted me to pull the emergency brake.
I've had past experience with projects that have a policy of shipping frequent major releases in order to have frequent breaking changes, and it was never a fun time. It's not just that the breaking changes themselves are troublesome. It's also that projects that are overly liberal about removing features tend to become overly liberal about adding features, too. So that, over the long run, they have a tendency to become bloated and clunky at a faster-than-average rate.
