+Backwards compatibility
+=======================
+
+Backwards compatibility is an important topic for us, as it should be in every open source project. We follow
+Semver_ which allows us to only break backwards compatibility between major versions. We use
+deprecation notices to inform you about the changes made before they are removed.
+
+Our backwards compatibility promise does not include classes or functions with the ``@internal`` annotation.
+
+Symfony Bundle
+--------------
+
+The HttplugBundle is just a Symfony integration for HTTPlug and it does not have any classes which falls under the BC
+promise. The backwards compatibility of the bundle is only the configuration and its values (and of course the behavior
+of those values).
+
+Discovery
+---------
+
+The order of which the strategies are included is not part of our BC promise. The strategies them self is marked
+with ``@internal`` so they are also not part of our BC promise.
+However, we do promise that we will not remove a strategy neither will we remove classes from the `
+``CommonClassesStrategy``. We will also support the following Puli versions:
+* 1.0.0-beta10
+
+The consequences of the BC promise on the discovery library is that you can never be sure *what* client that is
+being returned but you can be sure that if discovery finds you a client we will not make an update that will break
+discovery for you.
