o For 6.10, make the new Exceptions available so that everyone can start working on switching, but leave old Exceptions as the default so that existing programs still work. Prominently mark old exceptions as deprecated in all documentation.
o In the next version, make the new Exceptions the default. Make sure that programs using new Exceptions for 6.10 will still work (e.g., leave NewException as an alias for Exception, or whatever).

Yes, that would be even better. There seems to be an assumption that the module name will remain the same, so that is why I suggested the above. Regards, Yitz
