...
- With every release, Tungsten Fabric delivers 2 versions of the product: a stable version with bug fixes and a version with new features.
- The stable version is based on a version released once a year and is used as a Long Term Support (LTS). It is supposed to be released without any breaking changes and receives only critical bug fixes every quarter with the new release.
- Release version with new features is a branch cut from the master branch which is continuously developed and stable all the time (tested at least with automatic tests provided in CI/CD system).
- The naming convention for releases is based on the year and month of the release.
Naming convention: RXXYY where- XX points to the year of the release
- YY points to the month of the release
- For example, when release takes place in November of 2020 the release name will be R2011
- LTS release will receive the additional number to the tag that will point out that this is a release with additional bug fixes following the convention RXXYY.Z where Z is the number of bugfix release incrementing by 1
