To what extent do we accept breaking changes?\n\nOne example:  \nWith the distribution package name change from `open-simulation-interface` to `osi-python`, I encountered a breaking change. Previously, this worked:\n\n```python\nfrom importlib.metadata import version\nversion(\"open-simulation-interface\")\n```\nNow it requires:\n```\nfrom importlib.metadata import version\nversion(\"osi-python\")\n```\n\nI assume this change was intentional to avoid replacing the existing Python package. If so, what is the reasoning behind it? Isn’t the intention to provide a true drop-in replacement?","author":{"url":"https://github.com/TimmRuppert","@type":"Person","name":"TimmRuppert"},"datePublished":"2025-09-03T08:16:33.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/7/osi-python/issues/7"}
