because the underlining code inst changing overly-much, most of the
extensions should be easy to port and in th odd case where an extension is
truely broken by LO's remakes then we can rewrite the plugin from scratch.
 As a side not we will probably need a page on the document foundation site
that is for these ported plugins

That's a good solution, that will have to come in place whenever
incompatibles arise.

BTW: I depend totally on others when there's something to code or port.

 So my solution to your problem of incompatible extensions is to set up a
new mailing list for OO to LO extension porting.  the public can send the
extension which the people on the mailing list can then port over.

I wrote previously:
I'm willing to accept that extensions wont work in future if OO and LO
grow
apart, but I think this shouldn't be done artificially by changing the
version number. It could be bad for OO users that want to use LO, but
miss
some extensions because they are no longer compatible because the
version
number of LO differs.

Whenever there is a release with a changes for version 4.x.x I accept
incompatibilities.

not to you James:
Most people don't take version numbers serious anymore. Look at Chrome
for
example. The rapid change of major versions is ridiculous.

LO is not build from scratch, so for me it can stick to 3.x.x and move
onward.
