Yeah, when I say “pre-1.0” and “post-1.0” in that Discourse post, I am referring to the version number of the package. That is, “pre-1.0” refers to a package where the package’s version number is of the form `0.y.z`. And “post-1.0” refers to a package where the package’s version number is of the form `x.y.z` where `x` is greater than or equal to 1.

Quoting from that post:

> [@PSA: If your package's version is of the form \`0.y.z\`, please do NOT bump the minor version for new features](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/psa-if-your-packages-version-is-of-the-form-0-y-z-please-do-not-bump-the-minor-version-for-new-features/46570/1):

Nothing in that Discourse post has anything to do with the Julia version that you are using.
