As part of the discussion on versioning [1] a proposal was made to move parquet-format releases to SemVer. In particular the one concrete proposal [2] is to do a major version bump every time a release includes a forward incompatible change.
I'm starting this thread to collect other ideas per request of Antoine [3]. Thanks, Micah [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread/st8l40z5n4cx5c22rcog50ws4pkzdc3s [2] https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/588 (note this change has other non-related changes, that can be discussed separately).
