My only addition to this is that instead of tagging from the trunk we
might want to branch and then tag the releases from the branches.
Otherwise I'm fine with this approach as long as people don't care
anymore that SO numbers get bumped even though backward binary
compatibility has not necessarily been broken. IIRC we have a long
discussion in the archive about not bumping SO numbers unless we know
binary compatibility was broken.
I'm almost indifferent on the subject. But in practice I believe people
will unknowingly break binary compatibility and forget to bump the SO
name. I think this is worse than forcing folks to recompile apps just
because the SO name bumped even though it didn't break binary
compatibility.... but like I said. I wouldn't mind either way.
Cheers,
David
