Clarification on support for OAuth 1

It was recently announced that Dropbox API v2 would support OAuth 2 only. Does this mean that existing apps which use OAuth 1 will stop working when API v2 is rolled out?

Yes, the OAuth 1 authorization page at /1/oauth/authorize is only for API v1, and will be retired with API v1. You'll need to migrate to using the OAuth 2 authorization page at /oauth2/authorize.

(API v2 doesn't support OAuth 1, so the OAuth 1 page won't be useful once API v1 is retired anyway.)
