That's a very big claim. Simply upgrading to 1.2 shouldn't require any
changes to your source code unless you were relying upon internal APIs
or behavior that was buggy in v1.1.

We take backwards compatibility very seriously, so if you think you've
found a regression, please open a ticket describing the specific
problem. If you have already opened a ticket for this problem, then
please let me know the ticket number.
