I'm okay with breaking user APIs; we're talking about Euphoria not Unix. Programming languages do this all the time with major releases.

The key would be to deprecate the parameters for at least one point release, then ignore them going forward. If that's what you wanted to do.

However, the function works as-is, the documentation can state that the parameters are deprecated and to pass a slice instead, and defer the code change indefinitely.

Isn't there a 'deprecated' keyword in eu4.1 for this kind of situation?

deprecate public procedure say_hello(sequence name) 
    printf(1, "Hello, %s\n", { name }) 
end procedure 

Isn't this a good reason to release 4.1 as fast as possible?
