I didn't mean a deliberate change but an accidental one. If we don't
collectively test the subsequent releases of Neon, we are relying on Mr.
Orton to not accidentally break Subversion. I don't have enough of a
history with Neon's relative stability to make that call.

I'm just saying that the principle of explicitly permitting /known/ good
versions is always going to be better (even if only slightly) than
establishing minimums.
