when toggle format what by license comment
Aug 26, 2022 at 14:54 comment added JonasH In at least some commercial software, a bump in major version could simply mean "x amount of time has passed since the last major release", or "You have to buy a new license". There might not be any functional difference between minor and major releases.

Aug 25, 2022 at 14:24 comment added prosfilaes A minor version of 0.42 doesn't mean anything different from 42.0 in Semvar; there's been an update of the program, and any previous API has likely been changed. Any maintainer that could release a 0.42 you'd trust would likely also release a 42.0 you could trust.
