[forge-dev] DISCUSS: Forge Plugin Versioning Strategy

In order to keep Plugin versioning sane, we should discuss the actual rules of our versioning strategy. From our meeting today, we discussed the following possible initial rules: - Using OSGI versioning system - Plugins referencing older forge API should run on newer Forge versions within the same N release for a version number N.x.x - Plugins referencing newer forge API should not run on older Forge versions within the same N release for a version number N.x.x Thoughts? Would someone care to explain the OSGI versioning system? -- Lincoln Baxter, III http://ocpsoft.com http://scrumshark.com "Keep it Simple"
