Re: [cdt-dev] 'Breaking' API or not?
There's a lot of people extending FinalLaunchSequence, OTOH if it's new in Indigo then technically you can still remove it. 

Cheers,

Hi,

I need to move some API code from one class to another (two methods).  Both methods are new for Indigo.
Do I copy the code to the new class and keep the old unused one to preserve the API, or is it ok
to remove the unused code for RC2?

The code has value for people who override it, and allowing them to override a method
that is no longer being called seems worse than breaking the API to me.  So I'd prefer to
remove the unused API.

Recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks
