web devs: semantic versioning is the only acceptable method for serious, professional developers, such as ourselves.

Knuth: TeX versions asymptotically approach pi because I think it is fun.

· Web · 38 · 50

@dthompson you can tell how serious a webdev is by the volume of packages submitted to npm

@cwebber @dthompson an ever better metric is to make smaller packages count more!

@dthompson
Also because Tex 3 is perfect and does not need new features,so any new version is a bugfix

So technically it is following semantic version

@dthompson this totes came up in my work meeting today

@dthompson Fun fact: Knuth has declared that upon his death no more bug fixes will be released, and the version will be exactly π.
