Correct .. it would always require a new release to "tag" code as being compatible with a newer version (though of course with the 2.3 as 2.2 it can always be forced from the outside). Since FOSRestBundle as of now works with 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 the symfony version requirement should be ">=2.0,<2.3-dev" with this approach. Meaning that it would not be marked compatible with dev-master of symfony. regards, Lukas -- -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on Symfony, please read the procedure on http://symfony.com/security You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
