 Description   

For developers using the c++ client library, it is important that point releases try to maintain ABI/API compatibility between point releases. This makes it easier for the client library bug fixes to be deployed when applications are linked against the shared library version of the client library.

Until that is available, it would at least be nice if the website documentation mentioned something on the matter (e.g. that ABI/API compatibility is not maintained and what the advice is for upgrading through point releases)

Duly noted.
Will try do a better job of documenting when we break things.
