- This type of questions is pretty common on the ml. Personally I don't think I could confidently described the compatibility/upgrade scenarios. Some clarification is needed, ideally in a single place.
I think this is even more crucial as the number of new features increases (which is exciting) - Also would it make sense to release and version the clients independently of the server? Afaik clients are tied to a protocol version, not a broker version. At the moment the "new consumer" is in beta but shipped with non beta server code. Quite confusing. Some clarity and predictability would be helpful.
