Release strategy
----------------

Alignak backend and its *satellites* (backend client, and backend import tools) must all have the
same features level. As of it, take care to install the same minor version on your system to
ensure compatibility between all the packages. Use 0.4.x version of Backend import and Backend
client with a 0.4.x version of the Backend.
