We recently decided to:

- Maintain binary compatibility between patch releases (where version is 
major.minor.patch) but not 
between minor releases.

- Almost incidentally, to try to maintain source compatibility between minor releases, 
but not between 
major releases.

But I wonder if the later goal is too ambitious? Are we going to cripple Xerces 
because (1) we don't want 
to keep rolling the major version and (2) we're C++ and so there's quite a few minor 
things we could 
(want to) do that will break strict source compatibility. What if we rephrase "source 
compatibility" as 
being more major, on the order of the change we went through in going to the idom?
