Breaking Changes for v1.0

Several breaking changes were introduced with the v1.0.0 release:

  • Experimental and Beta services now require the appropriate tag to be added to their version:
    • Concept Expansion v1 is now v1-beta
    • Question and Answer v1 is now v1-beta

    • recognizeLive()
    • observeResult()

    • Search (replaced by Retrieve and Rank)
  • Dropped support for node.js v0.10.x (For reference: the WDC Node.js SDK now officially support the latest 0.12, LTS, and Stable releases of Node.js.)
