I think a capabilities scheme is more elegant, but it requires a lot of careful planning and foresight that I honest don't think we have yet. A staged numbering scheme for the API only describes one capability: interoperability. This is less informative, but IMHO describing for both humans and programs what interoperability you can expect from a release is the single most important thing. It's also a lot more simple to understand and implement, which is a strong plus right now. I'll leave room for a capabilities system in the future in the PEAR framework. - Stig [Andi Gutmans <andi@zend.com>] > Are you sure you want to go with a format of x.y.z?
