# GitLab Maintenance Policy
-GitLab follows the [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/) for its releases:
-`(Major).(Minor).(Patch)` in a [pragmatic way].
-
-- **Major version**: Whenever there is something significant or any backwards
- incompatible changes are introduced to the public API.
-- **Minor version**: When new, backwards compatible functionality is introduced
- to the public API or a minor feature is introduced, or when a set of smaller
- features is rolled out.
-- **Patch number**: When backwards compatible bug fixes are introduced that fix
- incorrect behavior.
-
-The current stable release will receive security patches and bug fixes
-(eg. `8.9.0` -> `8.9.1`). Feature releases will mark the next supported stable
-release where the minor version is increased numerically by increments of one
-(eg. `8.9 -> 8.10`).
-
-Our current policy is to support one stable release at any given time, but for
-medium-level security issues, we may consider [backporting to the previous two
-monthly releases][rel-sec].
-
-We encourage everyone to run the latest stable release to ensure that you can
-easily upgrade to the most secure and feature-rich GitLab experience. In order
-to make sure you can easily run the most recent stable release, we are working
-hard to keep the update process simple and reliable.
-
-More information about the release procedures can be found in our
-[release-tools documentation][rel]. You may also want to read our
-[Responsible Disclosure Policy][disclosure].
