IIRC, the rules (for libraries at least) are (correct me if I'm wrong):

These are not rules encoded by the PVP. The PVP doesn't prescribe how A or B should be changed besides stating when the major version should be bumped. This can be accomplished by increasing either A or B, but it's entirely up to the author to decide which. Any author is free to use whatever rule they see fit. Cheers, -- Felipe.
