     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13554?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Josh Elser updated HBASE-13554:
-------------------------------
    Attachment: HBASE-13554.patch

Uses some of Andrew's suggestions on API compatibility guarantees and notes that we do not fully follow semver (but _are_ aiming towards it).

> From the "Clarifying interface evolution freedom in patch releases" [thread|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/hbase-dev/201504.mbox/%3CCA%2BRK%3D_CkTUfa3nWPsy2A0PZt07h%3D1stP72rcazBrw5U0JFdgXA%40mail.gmail.com%3E] on dev@h.a.o
> Seems we have consensus that "HBase uses Semantic Versioning" isn't quite correct (or desired) at the moment. Update the documentation to make sure we're not misrepresenting any guarantees to users.
