An assumption you're making here that you can even write an adapter layer for the V2 API. There may be things you wish to _remove_ in the V2 API. V2 does not always mean "add more stuff", it can often mean rethinking "what stuff" is provided.



Yes - that's why I included the proviso "if you're truly replacing your API with a new, more capable version"

If your intention is to remove features and fire the customers who are relying on them, that's a different matter.

No. That is not a different matter. That's basically the whole problem being discussed, and the topic of the blog post you're discussing.
