Version Information

Releases will be numbered in the following format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>

Once an official release is made for a given language, all future releases of the library will occur in unison. For any given <major>.<minor> release there will be an associated release in each language with the same features and API. However <patch> release may be made to specific languages to address potential bugs.

In addition, this library uses Semantic Versioning, with the following guidelines:

• Breaking backward compatibility bumps the major (and resets the minor and patch)
• New additions without breaking backward compatibility bumps the minor (and resets the patch)
• Bug fixes and misc changes bumps the patch
