MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH over the model repository as one artifact; PATCH editorial, MINOR additive (profiles remain valid), MAJOR with a deprecation cycle that keeps deprecated constructs instance-covered until removal. Standardization snapshots are tagged standard/<milestone> and referenced by the document; errata are PATCH releases, substantive change is balloted first. The CI gate is the breaking-change audit.
