# Semantic Versioning for `sqlite-vec`
`sqlite-vec` is pre-v1, so according to the rules of [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/),
so "minor" release like "0.2.0" or "0.3.0" may contain breaking changes.
But what exactly counts as a "breaking change" in a SQLite extension? The line isn't so clear, unforetunately.
Here are a all the surfaces that COULD count as a "breaking change":
- SQL functions and columns on virtual tables
- The C API (extension entrypoints)
- "Bindings" like the official `pip` and `npm` packages
- Release assets like the pre-compile extensions
## What counts as a "breaking change"?
### Changes to SQL functions
- Re-naming or removing an SQL function
- Changing the number of required SQL parameters
### Changes to SQL virtual tables
- The number of
### Changes to the C API
Currently there is no "official" C API for `sqlite-vec`. However, there are entrypoints defined in C that C developers or developers using FFI can call. Any
### Compile-time options
The removal of any compile time options
## When is `v1.0` coming?
In a few months! The main problems I want to solve before `v1.0` include:
- Metadata columns
- Metadata filtering
- ANN indexing
- Quantization + pre-transformations
Once those items are complete, I will likely create a `v1.0` release, along with renaming the `vec0` virtual table modile to `vec1`. And if future major releases are required, a `v2.0` major releases will be made with new `vec2` virtual tables and so on.
Ideally, only a `v1` major release would be required. But who knows what the future has in store with vector search!
In general, I will try my best to maximize stability and limit the number of breaking changes for future `sqlite-vec` versions.
