Hello,

Due to how our software is deployed and our preferred method of integrating Crashpad (one single handler process serving all clients), we find ourselves wondering what is Crashpad's compatibility model.  I couldn't find anything obvious in the existing documentation.

For example, does Crashpad have any requirements to:
  1. Allow a client compiled against an older version of Crashpad to connect to a handler process from a newer version of Crashpad.
  2. Allow a handler process from an older version of Crashpad to handle clients compiled against a newer version of Crashpad.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Jones
