Well, I'm not going to name names when anyone interested can search this list's historical archives for when people complain loudly about changes. There is a library whose internals have seen a lot of recent and radical change, and it regularly breaks AFIO. I'm not alone in experiencing such breakage, but personally speaking I support such changes as they are a positive thing, even with the extra work they cause me in keeping up.
