Why? What do we gain for extensions already on v1?

Any new extensions converted will go to v2

Doing it via script seems more sensible to me for config stuff, where they go to having a value... It's labour intensive for little gain

I don't think we should be encouraging a mass-conversion type thing. New extensions should use v2, and but unless they need one of the new features included in v2 (currently only file config options), there's no benefit, and just a loss of backwards-compatibility.

It is likely that we will start adding features that require v2 (*cough* config db *cough*), at which point we should begin encouraging people to update to version 2.

Oh look, and now we have T149757 and T149759, meaning speeding this through would've been a waste of time :)
