Me too. There's not much impact on the Guide for these changes.
However the new ROUTER socket does dramatically change things.

Github doesn't allow forking of repos within the same organization,
which was the reason we created separate repos per main version. The
separate gits allowed different processes per version which IMO has
worked very well. E.g. patches to ML for libzmq, pull requests for
zeromq2-1. All we've lost is a single history, which really no-one has
ever proven necessary.
