<p>The Pulsar project adheres to <a href="http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html">Semantic Versioning</a>. Existing releases can expect
patches for bugs and security vulnerabilities. New features will target minor releases.</p>
<p>When upgrading an existing cluster, it is important to upgrade components linearly through each minor version. For
example, when upgrading from 2.8.x to 2.10.x, it is important to upgrade to 2.9.x before going to 2.10.x.</p>

<p>Feature release branches will be maintained with security fix and bug fix releases for a period of at least 12 months
after initial release. For example, branch 2.5.x is no longer considered maintained as of January 2021, 12 months after
the release of 2.5.0 in January 2020. No more 2.5.x releases should be expected at this point, even to fix security
vulnerabilities.</p>
<p>Note that a minor version can be maintained past it's 12 month initial support period. For example, version 2.7 is still
actively maintained.</p>
<p>Security fixes will be given priority when it comes to back porting fixes to older versions that are within the
supported time window. It is challenging to decide which bug fixes to back port to old versions. As such, the latest
versions will have the most bug fixes.</p>
<p>When 3.0.0 is released, the community will decide how to continue supporting 2.x. It is possible that the last minor
release within 2.x will be maintained for longer as an “LTS” release, but it has not been officially decided.</p>
<p>The following table shows version support timelines and will be updated with each release.</p>

<p>With the acceptance of <a href="https://github.com/apache/pulsar/wiki/PIP-47%3A-Time-Based-Release-Plan">PIP-47 - A Time Based Release Plan</a>,
the Pulsar community aims to complete 4 minor releases each year. Patch releases are completed based on demand as well
as need, in the event of security fixes.</p>
