It does not break anything. In fact I've written a new milter without
touching the old one. If it suits you, go on and use it. If it doesn't
just use the old milter. Up to you.
And... apologies for?

Again I dont. If you don't want to change, just don't.
Also, if you fell like maintaining the old milter please send us
patches. It's still sitting under /contrib and will always be available
there. I'll be committing them for you.
As a side note the new milter was announced on December the 5th. In
exactly 4 months i've received 1 bug report, promply fixed, and, as of
yesterday, 0 feature requests.
