Versioning

We follow the semver standard for versioning.

The following is considered the node's public API, and will therefore be considered as breaking changes.

• RPC gRPC specification (note that this excludes internal inter-component gRPC schemas).
• Node configuration options.
• Faucet configuration options.
• Database schema changes which cannot be reverted.
• Large protocol and behavioral changes.

We intend to include our OpenTelemetry trace specification in this once it stabilizes.

We will also call out non-breaking behvioral changes in our changelog and release notes.
