  pn0.8 is Zikula 1.0, so what do pn0.9 and pn1.0 (soon to be unused I'm sure) equate to? Zikula 1.1/1.2 or Zikula 2.0/3.0?
  
  Anyways my real question is... what version will such things as pnFuncName() be replaced by zkFuncName()? Will they be replaced by such, or will we go with an object oriented API? A technical roadmap would be nice at this junction in this projects history.
  
  Last I read the idea was to get to PostNuke 1.0 and then all the devs were going to take a break. Now that there will never be such a thing does that mean you're all here in perpetuity?
  
  The realization of 0.8 as Zikula 1.0 gives me a great sense of satisfaction and confidence (and I'm no more than a hobby coder) in what I have spent uncounted hours on. I really can't begin to imagine how the staff feel... WTG all involved!

  0.9 equates to Zikula 2.0 in the new numbering scheme. The pnAPI of PN* functions is deprecated as of .9 in favour of the object library, which moves out of includes/pnobjlib into includes, and other functions then just wrap the object library (reducing the duplication we ave in some places now). PostNuke 1.0 was never going to be the end of the project, there will always be more to do - that was just a joke doing the rounds a few years ago.
  
  We've moved to the numbering scheme major.minor.bugfix where major equates to 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, minor is for example .81 .82 and so on, and bugfixes are the usual hotfix / security releases.

  I think he meant major = 1.0.0, 2.0.0, 3.0.0 etc
  minor = 1.1.0, 1.2.0, 1.3.0, etc
  bugfix = 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3, etc

  To see what happens with each of the PN* functions in Zikula v2.x see the PN compatability library in zikula 2.
  
  Essentially all of the functionality is move into the object library core (pnobjlib in v1.x). Each PN* function then simply calls the object equivalent.
