You're thinking of Ring 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT, which should be released within the next month, and will go into beta soon.
Both Ring and Compojure use semantic versioning (http://semver.org/), so Ring 1.2.0 is backward compatible with Ring 1.1.0. This means that you can quite happily use Compojure 1.1.3 with Ring 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT if you so desire. Semantic versioning solves a lot of the problems you describe, because if a library depends on version 1.0, you know it will work with version 1.1, 1.2, and so forth. Only major versions, such as a leap from 1.5 to 2.0, have breaking changes. - James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
