"Versions are denoted using a standard triplet of integers: *MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH*. The basic intent is that *MAJOR* versions are incompatible, large-scale upgrades of the API. *MINOR* versions retain source and binary compatibility with older minor versions, and changes in the *PATCH* level are perfectly compatible, forwards and backwards."
