Oh well, I'm torn. I think it's a good thing, but maybe incompatible enough that we should release 3.1.5 now and start a 3.2.0 branch.
I don't think this counts as incompatible, since it would only be a STYLE-WARNING (so not break anything).
I'm concerned about postponing this because I don't see implementations -- *especially* the commercial ones -- picking up ASDF revisions quickly.
So I view ASDF releases as a very finite resource, and one where we have to get the most bang for the buck.
I'd rather postpone than push a release out the door, and maybe find it's the only one that the implementations will bundle for this year.

About holding the release briefly while I negotiate with Xach about metadata? Xach is starting to make QL complain about systems missing AUTHOR, DESCRIPTION, and LICENSE. I'm pushing for VERSION, as well. I was thinking of adding a new class of STYLE-WARNING for systems that are missing that metadata. Given that it's hard to get ASDF versions into implementations, I'm considering holding on this briefly. I'll put in a topic branch for this. cheers, r
