Due to its very tight integration with Core, WP-CLI is very susceptible to these breaking changes, and the current packaging strategy does not always deal with this in the best way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After 2.4.0, I will re-evaluate the current versioning policy regarding the framework package and how best to take interface changes in Core into account, that need us to modify signatures between Core versions to support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019re all looking forward to an awesome WordPress 5.3 release, so let\u2019s make sure the ecosystem is ready for it! \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n<nav class='o2-post-footer-actions'><ul class='o2-post-footer-action-row'><li class='o2-post-footer-action'><a href=\"https:\/\/login.wordpress.org\/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcli%2F2019%2F11%2F08%2Fwp-cli-v2-4-0-release-date%2F%23respond&#038;locale=en_US\" title=\"Login to Reply\"  class=\"genericon  genericon-reply\"  data-action=\"login-to-reply\"  data-actionstate=\"default\" >Login to Reply<\/a><\/li><\/ul><div class='o2-post-footer-action-likes'><\/div><ul class='o2-post-footer-action-row'><\/ul><\/nav>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Version 2.4.0 of WP-CLIWP-CLI WP-CLI is the Command Line Interface for WordPress, used to do administrative and development tasks in a programmatic way.
