Add Version control #84

Closed xdxxxdx closed 2 months ago

xdxxxdx commented 9 months ago

As the GitHub - Informatievlaanderen/VSDS-Testbed is developed for testing against The TREE hypermedia specification. It might be a good idea to have version control of the SPEC (includes historical versions), then the testbed could always have a valid reference link pointing to the SPEC.

Also projects developed for implementing TREE also can benefit from it, when using dct:conforms in the metadata.

This would be very helpful indeed!

Good point. We should also raise this during tomorrow’s call!

pietercolpaert commented 8 months ago

From the call decision:

Let’s add a semantic version changelog, but let’s indicate that our goal is to have no breaking changes: we are working towards a 1.0 version that must remain backwards compatible forever

pietercolpaert commented 3 months ago

As this is still not fully in place, I’d like to propose a change: the W3C specifications usually work with changelogs based on decisions that were taken, and with a version of a spec based on a certain data of the latest consensus.

I’d propose using the releases functionality on Github for listing the decisions that have been taken and the time of that meeting.

As this was discussed in the standardization call: we’ll go with time-based spec versions instead of semantic versioning.
