I think we can remove versioning from runtime now

Why?

Also, perhaps a topic for another PR/discussion.

Because we don't need it. How do we bump it anyway

Right now it looks like it's connected to client release

The versions are still "aligned", that's true, but they are not connected.

The bump is in respect to the crate level, same as until now I guess?
Breaking changes or new major updates would entail major version bump, otherwise minor or patch where appropriate.

Just my opinion - but wouldn't it be weird to release new versions of a "crate", while keeping the crate version same?

Or we can align it with spec. 1.10.0

To be fair, it would have to be 1.11.0 then 🙂. The last two digits are patch version, the first two (or more) are a combination of major/minor version.

I'm in, we can use 1.11.0

Actually, I meant to write 11.0.0 🤦 . But let's keep in mind that we're on 5.x.y now, and going back to 1 as major version would be weird.

Given that our runtime release format is XXYY, what would the version be for a minor runtime release like 1101? Would it be 11.1.0? I assume the patch digit would always remain 0 in that case
