I have extreme reservations about "Semantic Versioning". It's neither Semantic nor Versioning. It's just an additional trigger system for source management. I associate it primarily with node.js and npm and thus "Developer Driven Updating". Working in an area where "Compliance" and "ISO Certification" is paramount such schemes are not usable. We have enough problems with dependency path rewriting in "Vendoring". With respect, I personally don't think this is a good idea.
