- # Versioning and Releases
-
- Note: This document references terminology defined at http://semver.org.
-
- ## Release Frequency
-
- Regular MINOR releases of gRPC-Go are performed every six weeks. Patch releases
- to the previous two MINOR releases may be performed on demand or if serious
- security problems are discovered.
-
- ## Versioning Policy
-
- The gRPC-Go versioning policy follows the Semantic Versioning 2.0.0
- specification, with the following exceptions:
-
- - A MINOR version will not _necessarily_ add new functionality.
-
- - MINOR releases will not break backward compatibility, except in the following
- circumstances:
-
- - An API was marked as EXPERIMENTAL upon its introduction.
- - An API was marked as DEPRECATED in the initial MAJOR release.
- - An API is inherently flawed and cannot provide correct or secure behavior.
-
- In these cases, APIs MAY be changed or removed without a MAJOR release.
- Otherwise, backward compatibility will be preserved by MINOR releases.
-
- For an API marked as DEPRECATED, an alternative will be available (if
- appropriate) for at least three months prior to its removal.
-
