why not enforcing in a way or another a API compatibility test suite for ensuring at least a certain level of compatibility between two version? I think it is something quite doable, and moreover this would kinda force the package manager to write unit tests which is always a good practice.
At the moment, we're trying to agree the policy. After the policy is agreed, tools could be created to help ensure that those policies are met. People would then use them if they see fit, or they could be built into package creation / version upload tools as standard. The first thing is to agree a reliable, sensible policy that improves the quality of software / package management, and is WORTH enforcing, though.
