@sapioit @colomet @bmitch

Any suggestions about questions to go into the FAQ?

[bmitch]

@Exadra37 I could write up some questions if you want to answer them?

[Exadra37]

@bmitch put here your questions than we will see if they are a good fit for the FAQ or the documents need to be updated to clarify that questions ;)

[bmitch]

Just off the top of my head:

• What is explicit versioning?
• How does it differ from other versioning methods?
• What advantages does explicit versioning provide?
• Is it compatible with composer (or other package management software).
• Who is behind explicit versioning?
• When should I use explicit versioning?
• Why should I use explicit versioning?

[Exadra37]

@bmitch nice set of FAQ questions... thanks :)

[sapioit]

Also:

• What explicit versioning is not?
• What disadvantages does explicit versioning have?
• When should I not use explicit versioning?
• Why should I not use explicit versioning?

Just to make things more... explicit. (I know, I know, bad pun...)

@sapioit

Since when Explicit Versioning has disadavantages 🙄

[sapioit]

Since there are people who prefer a different versioning system. That would be the only disadvantage I can think of...

@sapioit

I was making a joke ;)

Disadvantages:

• you need to write 1 more digit and a dot.
• enforces thinking more, once now is clear when a Incompatible Release is done.
• encourages use of strong suites of tests to ensure that breaking changes will not happen without being intentional.
