Presumably this'll be zope.password 4.0.0. Yes, changing the existing interface would require a 4.0. If you'd add a new interface extending the IPasswordManager one, we could do it in a 3.x release. A new zope.password 3.x release could go into both ZTK 1.1 and 1.0, a backwards incompatible 4.0 would have to wait for ZTK 1.2. > What does this mean for the versioning of AccessControl however?

Introducing a new dependency on zope.password will mean a 2.14 release. > What version of Zope2 can start using the > new AccessControl package with a "zope.password >= 4.0.0" dependency? This depends on the changes in AccessControl and how backwards compatible they are. If backwards compatibility is preserved, this can go into Zope 2.13 and trunk, since we allow minor feature additions in the stable series. Zope 2.12 is at a 2.12.15 release now and at the end of its lifecycle - it'll only see bugfixes.
