roughly represents a breaking change, `Y` a backwards-compatible change, and
`Z` a patch or insignificant alteration to the API.

`v1.0` of Matrix was released on June 10th, 2019 with the following API
versions:

| API/Specification | Version |
|-------------------------|---------|
| Client-Server API | r0.5.0 |
| Server-Server API | r0.1.2 |
| Application Service API | r0.1.1 |
| Identity Service API | r0.1.1 |
| Push Gateway API | r0.1.0 |
| Room Version | v5 |

The current global versioning system was introduced with `v1.1`.
[Matrix 1.0](https://matrix.org/blog/2019/06/11/introducing-matrix-1-0-and-the-matrix-org-foundation/)
did not correspond directly to a specification version; instead, it was based on
the following versions for the individual APIs:

| API/Specification | Version |
|--------------------------|---------------|
| Client-Server API | r0.5.0 |
| Server-Server API | r0.1.2 |
| Application Service API | r0.1.1 |
| Identity Service API | r0.1.1 |
| Push Gateway API | r0.1.0 |
| Room Versions | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |

`v1.0` should **not** be returned by servers in the
[`GET /_matrix/client/versions`](/client-server-api/#get_matrixclientversions)
response.
