Fundamentally, if you add features you are creating a new version. Firefox 5.0 would implement a different "HTML" than Firefox 7.0. It would be a mistake not to capture that in version identification. I do STRONGLY agree with the design principle of additive behavior, and "don't break the web".Received on Wednesday, 4 April 2007 18:28:14 UTC
