> There is a couple of issues requiring us to change the segment format in a non compatible way (OAK-3348, OAK-2896, OAK-2498, OAK-4201). 
> We should introduce a new module here
> * to minimise ripple effect on concurrent development work in other parts of Oak and upstream projects
> * to be able to cleanly migrate existing repositories via a side grading
> * to cleanly separate breaking changes from the existing code base
> The plan is roughly to:
> * Create new module (called {{oak-segment-next}} for now, will discuss names later)
> * Apply patch prepared for OAK-3348
> * Discuss and decide on final name and refactor accordingly 
> * Reactor affected tooling such that the targeted segment store can be specified via an option. Keep default at {{oak-segment}}.
> * Once sufficiently stabilised, deprecate {{oak-segment}}. Make this one the default in switch the default target for tooling.
> * Define and implement migration path
> I will create respective issues as needed.
