+
+This discusses information relevant to developing Py-ART.
+
+--------
+Versions
+--------
+Py-ART follows `semantic versioning <https://semver.org>`_ in its version number. This means
+that any Py-ART ``1.x`` release will be backwards compatible with an earlier ``1.y`` release. By
+"backward compatible", we mean that **correct** code that works on a ``1.y`` version will work
+on a future ``1.x`` version. It's always possible for bug fixes to change behavior or make
+incorrect code cease to work. Backwards-incompatible changes will only be allowed when changing
+to version ``2.0``. Such changes will be proceeded by `FutureWarning` as appropriate.
+For a version ``1.x.y``, we change ``x`` when we release new features, and ``y``
+when we make a release with only bug fixes.
