Note non-backwards compatible changes in release notes #314

Closed e-backmark-ericsson closed 1 year ago

e-backmark-ericsson commented 2 years ago

Description

It's not very easy today to see if there is a non-backwards compatible change introduced between two Eiffel editions/releases. It would be good to add that either to the Releases themselves and/or to the Versioning page

Motivation

Clear communication of non-backwards compatible changes to the protocol

Exemplification

See description above

Benefits

Happy users

Possible Drawbacks

None, except some additional work when releasing a new protocol edition

Backwards incompatible changes are now declared on the release page so this item can be closed. https://github.com/eiffel-community/eiffel/releases
