API stability in releases #222

Closed bkpoon closed 5 days ago

bkpoon commented 1 week ago

I help manage the libsvm conda package on the conda-forge channel. Does libsvm follow semantic versioning (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning#Semantic_versioning, https://semver.org) where API changes are only in the "major" version number (i.e. "3") and not in the "minor" version number (i.e. "35")? If so, we can add some additional information for conda to use when trying to create compatible environments. A PR to add that information is at https://github.com/conda-forge/libsvm-feedstock/pull/36

Thanks!

Yeap, you're basically right.
