We don't, at least not in all components. Quite a few of our components don't have a patch number at all and they sometimes create minor releases that would be patch releases if we followed SemVer. And sometimes we convince ourselves something that in a release that would be a major release it is OK to not change the major version number. Both ends of this are true for Compress which I happen to know best. > What would be the additional burden? Having to obey more rules. Don't get me wrong. I haven't got any problems with components who want to adhere to SemVer. It is that I just don't think we need to force all components to do so. As little as we don't need to force all components to use Maven or need to force all components to use an indentation of four spaces. There is no reason to standardize this accross components IMHO.
