Perhaps I wasn't specific enough... sorry about that. I mean that we guarantee that whatever latest version of an API a project supports for a release, clients that communicate on that API can be assured that the servers built in the next release series will at a minimum support that API version, along with any new API versions that might have been added in the new release series. For instance, if Compute API 1.1 is what is supported in the Diablo release series for Nova, then we make the guarantee that all the server code in the Essex release series supports the 1.1 API, even if during the Essex release series, a new Compute 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 API comes out. Does that make more sense?
