I'm a great fan of http://semver.org/

Have you ever considered using SemVer for version numbering of Dancer
(and/or Dancer2)?

That thing is created especially to simplify the work with backward
incompatible changes.

Maybe the usage of SemVer will simplify the work with changing API of
the Dancer2?

I have 5 apps using D2 in production, one of them for a workflow that is now responsible for a couple of M€ worth of revenue at work (it was an unexpected success :) ), and we hard-code to D2 8 + patches to make sure everything works. 9 was a bust, 10 had some issues with extensions we use, haven't tried 11 yet.
