This is the first released version of the interface. The current intention is to permit backwards-compatible extensions in subsequent upstream releases without changing the version number. So old code can use a newer version of the lib at runtime, but new code should not use an older version than the one it was compiled against (enforce this with package deps). If we find ourselves forced to break backwards-compatibility, we'll inc the version number.
