General Availability (GA)
- When it starts: When a major version is publicly released. To get notified about a new version, subscribe to the Release Notes.
- What it means: A version in GA is going through active development, receives all new features and bug fixes, which are applied on top of the last minor version.
End-of-Development (EOD)
- When it starts: When a newer major version is publicly released.
- What it means: A version in EOD receives only security fixes (unless they can be resolved by a SemVer-compatible upgrade) and fixes for critical issues. Only production dependencies receive the security fixes. These fixes are applied on top of the last minor version. No new features are added.
End-of-Support (EOS)
