Thanks to those who asked for an explanation.

In brief: nothing in this announcement asks anyone to interrupt the
Jessie freeze. I've addressed this with a clarification followup
<URL:https://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/python-modules-team/2014-November/022841.html>.

Public classes in << 0.9 were re-named in 0.9. The attempt at
providing backward compatibility is insufficient (the names that did
refer to classes now refer to factory functions only).

I will address the rest of your points in a post to ‘debian-python’,
for those who are interested.
