[Laszlo-dev] Fileupload and events

[Antun Karlovac]

Hi Tucker,

Thanks for the info. I was actually referring to the process for a 
change that would make a significant change to the API.

Do I just make my change and submit the proposal as described in 
Code_Review_Process if it's an incubator component? i.e. we don't have 
to go through a period where both the new API and the old API would work 
concurrently then deprecate the old API, then finally remove it?

It's an incubator component, which is why I'm volunteering to do it - I'm assuming it'll be a straightforward API that can change in a future release.
