I wonder if it shoule be up to individual WGs to decide whether to deprecate, supercede of just list versions. The Web platform waits for no man or spec; I feel like those folks tend to rev APIs quickly, create compatibility matrixes, and leave it to polyfills and clever app programmers to deal with the legacy. I think data formats and query and schema languages are more frequently referenced by version and should carry less judgemental pointers to future versions.
