ISSUE-4: API Versioning

api-versioning

API Versioning

State:

CLOSED

Product:

APIs — General

Raised by:

Robin Berjon

Opened on:

2009-08-25

Description:

Let's have the API versioning discussion once and for all. Many are in favour of not having any (i.e. v2 just adds incremental features, and if a radical change is needed the API name is changed), but we need a documented consensus on this early.
