Versioning for NIP-47 allows the protocol to evolve and even make breaking changes while maintaining backwards-compatibility where needed. Versions are represented as
<major>.<minor>
(e.g. 1.3). Major version bumps imply breaking changes that are incompatible with the previous major version. Minor version bumps, however, only include non-breaking feature additions or improvements which can maintain full compatibility with the previous minor version.
