As of release 3.0.0, the OpenSSL versioning scheme is changing to a more contemporary format: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
With this format, API/ABI compatibility will be guaranteed for the same MAJOR version number. Previously they guaranteed API/ABI compatibility across the same MAJOR.MINOR combination.
- MAJOR: API/ABI incompatible changes will increase this number
- MINOR: API/ABI compatible feature releases will change this
- PATCH: Bug fix releases will increment this number. We also allow backporting of accessor functions in these releases.
