I agree... given that changes are being made, it makes total sense to rev the version number.
a natural assessment. unfortunately it has problems. version numbers mostly don't work.
if the changes produce a spec that is a superset of the previous version, the new stuff is self-declaring and version number isn't needed.
if the changes produce an incompatible spec, it's a new protocol, rather than a 'version'.
