> As the Apache Cassandra Java Driver aspires to follow [semantic versioning|https://semver.org/] ([reference|https://github.com/apache/cassandra-java-driver/blob/a17f7be614a09ab81bc2982b7f7ab3a123b4ab28/manual/api_conventions/README.md?plain=1#L29-L31]), any change that breaks backwards compatibility can not be made in a minor or patch release.
> Any breaking API change should be held back until a major release, and even then API changes should be minimal in order to reduce friction in upgrading between major releases.
> This epic captures JIRAs that were created that would possibly involve making breaking API  changes so they can be more easily tracked.
> For example [CASSANDRA-19885], which involves removing a default interface method added in a minor version to avoid breaking compatibility in a minor release.
