[asdf-devel] ASDF 3?

Many people have suggested making the ASDF 2.27 release an ASDF 3.0
release instead.

I was previously hesitant, wanting to signal that I preserve
compatibility, and not making it a release that doesn't preserve
version-satisfies, since the major number is different. But I realize
that (a) my code may be the only one that ever checks the version of
ASDF, and I'm having to update it anyway, and (b) considering at the
list of new features and the major rewrite of previous features, it's
actually a bigger change in the making than there was from ASDF 1 to
ASDF 2.

Therefore I'm changing my mind and I am considering calling the next
release ASDF 3, with feature :asdf3 instead of :asdf2.27.

If you have objections, speak in the next few days.
