<h3 class="mb-3">API change policy</h3>
The OpenLayers API consists of
<ul>
  <li>names and signatures of constructors</li>
  <li>names and signatures of instance methods and properties</li>
  <li>names and signatures of functions</li>
  <li>names of constants</li>
</ul>
<p>Within a major release series, the API will not be changed.  Any changes to the API will be accompanied by a new major release.</p>
<p class="text-danger">Note: The API change policy does not cover CSS class names that are used to style the OpenLayers UI. It also does not cover any typedefs and enums.</p>
