This may raise a few eyebrows. Does this mean that all the things that were planned for API 3.0.0 are done? Not at all. The plans laid out in December 2016 for API 3.0.0 were far too ambitious, and as a result the ALPHA series dragged out forever (18 months now). This is a break away from those plans, to bring development and release flow back to some sort of sanity. Does this mean that my plugins will stop breaking all the time now? No, it does not! Development isn't going to stop, although breaking changes will be confined only to major API releases. It's anticipated that the major API version will be bumped as nearly as often as the ALPHA version was during the last 18 months. The reason for this return to 3.0.0 is to allow us to fine-tune our release flow so that plugin developers can get advantage of newer, non-breaking API features without having to bump the API in a breaking way. What are the criteria for the API versions now? - Major: This will be bumped for breaking changes, changes which will break plugins. it's expected that we'll roll out new major versions regularly. - Minor: This will be bumped when non-breaking feature additions are made, such that API 3.0.0 plugins would still load on 3.1.0. However, plugins requiring 3.1.0 will not run on 3.0.0. - Patch: This will be bumped for bugfix updates. Plugins requiring 3.0.0 will work on 3.0.1, but not vice versa. TL;DR: This insanity has gone on far too long.
