I am not aware of any users personally, but that doesn't mean a whole
heck of a lot ;)  Ingo and Peter probably have better insight here.

However, you did the proper thing from my perspective and bumped the
version number.  So even if there are users out there, it stands to
reason they will likely pick up on the change in a deterministic manner
anyway.  Therefore, IMO you are all set.

Thanks Luis,
