You break it, you bump it :) Seriously, whenever; 1. function declaration or return types change [broken binary compatibility.] 2. external structure members change [broken binary compatibility.] So when you changed the structs - you needed an MMN bump. BTW --- 1.3.23 question here; The API_EXPORT -> API_EXPORT_NONSTD changes in theory require an MMN bump on Win32. Which really sucks, because I don't want to break everyone else. Anyone given any thought as to how we can avoid an MMN bump, when all that's happened is a specific platform has been broken [linkage, etc?] It almost makes me think we _aught_ to drop the .def file for win32, creating decorated symbol names that now-broken modules will refuse to link against, sparing all other platforms a version bump.
