How should EthOn be versioned?

[jo-tud]

My suggestion is to go public with 0.1.0 and set the owl:versionIRI to http://ethon.consensys.net/1/.

• From then on act according to http://semver.org/ (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH)
• Then, only when we come to 1.0.0 the version IRI increases.
• Releases should be done via GitHub tagging.
• Development will take place in dev branch.
• The latest version will always be http://ethon.consensys.net.

(thanks @kumavis for this suggestion)

@jo-tud keep in mind one little aspect of semver: the difference between major 0 and major 1.

With major 0, the work is in beta phase and any breaking change will result in a minor bump. With major 1, the work is over the beta phase and any breaking change will result in a major bump.

In short, you could inflate the major very quickly if breaking changes are expected.

@axic
Yes, that's right. We will start with version IRI ethon.consensys.net/0/ and version 0.1.0
