well, the policy for versioning should say that API incompatitbilies should
force a major release number increase. The whole GNU/Linux system
is based on this concept. The advantage I see is that a small but important
bug fix in openvas-libraries would not make it mandatory to make new releases
of openvas-libnasl and openvas-server with not changes made.

All the best
