One thing I wonder about: should the rules make any distinction between
API incompatibilities and client protocol incompatibilities? For the
former I would imagine one would like to have some "minor" version number
increase whenever features are added and a "major" number be incremented
when changes become incompatible. For the former, one would probably
want to have a similar rule but with a dichotomy between server-side
upgrades and client-side upgrades.
