So are you suggesting a pragmatic approach here? As in the developer may break BC by mistake and if he feels that some changes bear the danger of a BC break but he does not intend to break BC he should upgrade the major version number but not create a new package? Or are you saying that upgrading the major version number but not creating a new package is for changes that change the internal structure and will therefore break BC for package that extend the package (rather than using its public API)? regards, Lukas
