      Evolving

          An Evolving interface may eventually become Standard  or
          Stable but is still in transition.

          Sun will make reasonable efforts to ensure compatibility
          with  previous  releases as it evolves. When non-upwards
          compatible changes become necessary, they will occur  in
          minor  and  major releases; such changes will be avoided
          in micro releases whenever possible. If such a change is
          necessary,  it  will  be documented in the release notes
          for the affected release, and when  feasible,  Sun  will
          provide migration aids for binary compatibility and con-
          tinued source development.


Are you still afraid ?
