- lamontcg 5y agoWe don't have any better alternative, but lets not be naive about it when it comes to building bits of framework. Semver would just be an artificial impediment at this level.
- slver 5y agoSemVer is an impediment only if you insist to make it so.

- slver 5y agoThat's not a new idea, I also put the version in my package name, so that you can use v1.x with v2.x etc. It doesn't contradict SemVer. However when you do that, it becomes a big deal to jump from one version to another even if the breaks are minor. So pros and cons.
