Just use "The Backwards Compatibility Promise", we didn't speak of "our" release cycle neither

I'm not sure this feels right here. A promise is something personal, something that has only value if you know who it is from. So I think the first person and use of "our" here makes the document more credible.

===================================

As of Symfony 2.1, we promise you backwards compatibility for all further 2.x
As of Symfony 2.3, we promise you backwards compatibility for all further 2.x
releases. Ensuring smooth upgrades of your projects is our first priority.
However, backwards compatibility comes in many different flavors. This page
lists which code changes are covered by our promise and to what degree.
