I think Walter is right, the code changes introduced by new features
(not bugs) are very rarely backwards-incompatible (even more rarely that
they should be, IMO, but that's another story), so I don't see as valid
this idea that you have to refactor your code with each new major
release. If you don't have time to use, or don't want to use the new
features of a release, simply don't, you won't be any worse because of that.
