(or major) version number, and will generally be avoided.  

v1.4.0
------
There are some breaking changes in this release, though less than you might think, considering
this goes all the way from version 2.4.3 to 2.8.0.

* BREAKING CHANGE: Changed streaming API behaviour to make the initial connection asynchronous (Thanks to Shura0 for the detailed report)
    * Old behaviour: The initial connection could fail, the stream functions would then throw an exception.
    * New behaviour: The initial connection function just returns immediately. If there is a connection error, the listeners on_abort handler is called to inform the user and the connection is retried.
* BREAKING CHANGE: search() now calls through to search_v2. The old behaviour is available as search_v1.

* Added support for preferences API (Added in 2.8.0)
