There are a few possible approaches to stability. Yearly stable releases
is one of them, but that's still moving very slowly. Another possible
approach is something like Semantic Versioning: have rules about when
the version of each module changes, and include that version in the
module name.

So instead of something like (scheme-live string) you'd have
(scheme-live string 1), and then if someone made a breaking change to
the API (removed or renamed a procedure, changed the number of arguments
to a procedure, etc.), the new change would have to be (scheme-live
string 2), and the old version would still exist. Then updates won't
break existing code.
