To me this indicates that module/theme maintainers need to do a better job of branching their modules especially when combined with the following chunk: I don't follow this. Is the reasoning that 11190 downloads for 4.6 is high, suggesting that people have to use 4.6 modules for 4.7 installations? There were nearly 2000 downloads of the drupal-4.6 tar file, so the ratios don't support this (439049 is roughly 20 times the number of 4.7.3 downloads, while 11190 is only 5 times the number of drupal-4.6 downloads). I'm not sure this reasoning has any validity, so I'd like to know more about your conclusion.
