Short version: Up through version 0.8 or so, we promise to break everything constantly (but not until we have a good reason). After that, we will establish version number thresholds below which individual APIs will not change. For example, only on a major version change are we allowed to even consider breaking the embedding API. On the other hand, we may break pasm somewhat more frequently: humans should only write pir, not pasm, and it's not against the law to abuse silicon-based life forms. -- Chip Salzenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
