Refactoring public methods should be managed as major changes

The refactored modal plugin method breaks backward compatibility https://github.com/Dogfalo/materialize/commit/4984e2391fa7ce428d77910c2656835c021d11be#diff-452a8aa82569876ba89deba84331011cL183

 $('.modal').leanModal();  -->  $('.modal').modal();

So the release version should be incremented as the npm docs recommend https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/semantic-versioning

@NitroBAY and @Levino can you be a bit respectful of the hard work that maintainers do?

Everyone makes mistakes, and actually, this one was no so very hard to find and fix for you.

Maintaining an open source project is a source of constant abuse from ungrateful users. Some toxic users start thinking that you’re under obligation to give your time for free and that’s very disappointing.

I’m leaving here two links, I hope both of you can read them and better understand the consequences.

It was an unfortunate oversight. We are still actively maintaining it, but our time is spread thin at the moment. In the near future, my time will be more free and I will put more effort into Materialize. I apologize for the error in versioning and I’ll be more careful next time.
