Releases will be numbered with the following format:
<major>.<minor>.<patch>-<build>
Constructed with the following guidelines:
- A new major release indicates a large change where backward compatibility is broken.
- A new minor release indicates a normal change that maintains backward compatibility.
- A new patch release indicates a bugfix or small change which does not affect compatibility.
- A new build release indicates this is a pre-release of the version.
