Romantic Versioning

¶ August 30, 2014 by !undefined

Jeremy Ashkenas on SemVer. Lots of good points in here.

SemVer is a great idea, but I’ve always been a bit skeptical about how useful it really is. It’s nice to distill down the versioning to the {major}.{minor}.{patch} but ultimately you (the developer/project maintainer) are making an arbitrary best-guess decision about which number is getting incremented.

So yeah: “Romantic Versioning”.

RIP YUI

Important Announcement Regarding YUI:

I was never a big fan of YUI, but it was an interesting framework, and an example of how to approach the design and assembly of a large, comprehensive project. The list of contributors is long and distinguished. I’m a bit sad to see them torpedo the project, but not all together surprised either.
