Wrong version conventions about feedback HOT 4 CLOSED

We do it exactly as you posted for everything after a 1.0.0 release. For everything still in the 0.x.x range semver states:

Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything may change at any time. The public API should not be considered stable.

So we treat 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0 as a major update, since that what it is in most cases.

Hi @mfbmina,

we actually had some feedback in the opposite direction and changed it. The truth is pre-1.0.0 there aren't a lot of rules :)

From our experience most library authors treat minor version jumps as major updates when they are pre 1.0.0. I think you can also see that here if you look at the release notes for mysq2 0.5.0 which has a lot of breaking changes: https://github.com/brianmario/mysql2/releases/tag/0.5.0
