Not really. Just like I don't think the right time for a new release is after every commit, I also don't think the right time for a whole new major version is after every new feature. 10 new "major" versions in the span of even 3 years seems like an awful lot.
I agree with this. Major versions should be pretty major. And while I've been excessively major with my major versions in the past, I would expect that bumping the major version number of a product has some very serious changes to it that will fundamentally change how it or a part of it works and/or how you use it.
I agree with this.
However, each maintainer must determine his or her own policies in regards to these issues.
And I agree with this which is why we should change the structure to allow the module maintainer more discretion toward that policy. Earnie -- http://for-my-kids.com/ -- http://give-me-an-offer.com/
