​From my side I guess I'd prefer not to have anything that ​results in us
having side by side implementations and more V2 classes - I think it makes
it very confusing to use the API. Also with regard to the proposed name
changes, I am OK with them in concept but I think it would be better done
in QGIS 3.0 to minimise churn for documentation and training material
authors out there.

So my apologies but for a 2.x release I think I am -1 on the proposed
changes

If you were to amend the proposal to state that changes would be effective
of the 3.0 release it would be +1 from me.

Regards

Tim
