We will be releasing a "Version 1" of Mir before 17.04 with stable APIs and ABIs for downstream servers and clients.

This will involve a client ABI break as we will be removing a large number of deprecated functions.

NB Choosing to label a Mir release "Version 1" reflects the maturity of the Mir project. It should not be considered an indication of what may or may not be the default shell in Ubuntu 17.04.
