The proposal would be to stop providing new methods and method updates for the non-thread-safe API, correct?  While I'm generally in support of this, I think it is one release too early.  I think that people are just now undertaking the development efforts to use the thread safe API in their software, and we should give folks a bit more time before we pull the rug out.  Let's wait until 3.4 instead of doing it in 3.3.
