One of the key activities we use to manage this is the ARC process,
specifically its interface taxonomy and focus on only allowing
components to consume Committed interfaces from others. If you disallow
dependencies on private or uncommitted interfaces, then you have a
problem that devolves into a simple change management exercise:
If you create a Committed interface for others to use, you can not
change it incompatibly without forcing a "Major Release" of your
component.  The correlation is that consumers can depend on things
*not* breaking in "Minor", "Micro" or "Patch" releases.
