Comment (by leonardo.schenkel@…):

 I'm a have user of this program and due to their past history in breaking
 backwards compatibility, I really would like to discuss the possibility of
 naming this port `syncthing-0.14` so the user has to explicitly upgrade to
 a new "major" version (it's 0.x is because the protocol is not set in
 stone yet). An automatic upgrade would make the device not able to
 synchronize until all other devices are upgraded at the same time,
 rendering the program effectively useless. Speaking as a user of this
 port, I would find that very disruptive/annoying.

 Once a new "major" version is out we could release a new revision for the
 previous version with a note saying that users should install the new port
 if they want new updates. I don't think it's necessary to maintain more
 than the newest and the previous version. Older versions can be just made
 obsolete.

 A similar situation happens with `gnupg21` port due to being non-backwards
 compatible.
