Release policy

The releases done by KAMAILIO (OpenSER) project are guided by the following policies.

Each Kamailio (OpenSER) version is composed of 3 numbers, separated by dots: X.Y.Z

• X and Y are used to identify the major releases
• Z is used to identify the minor releases

Incrementing the numbers in version string:

• X is changed when radical changes are included, like new internal architecture
• Y is changed for each major release
• Z is changed for each minor release

A major release includes new features in core or modules and may not preserve configuration file or database structure compatibility with previous major release.

• 6 to 8 months based releasing
• 4-6 months development
• approximately 2 months extensive testing
• these releases are derived from the trunk version
• the version of a major release ends in 0 (Z=0): X.Y.0

A minor release includes bug fixes and documentation updates done for a major release. It preserves configuration file and database structure compatibility.

• 1 to 3 months after a major release
• shorter testing period
• one ore more minor releases depending on the demand
• this releases are derived from the stable branch
• the version of a minor release keeps same X and Y from the major release <span class=“plainlinks”>[http://www.shoppharmacycounter.com/ <span style=“color:black;font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none!important; background:none!important; text-decoration:none;”>weight loss pills</span>] and changes Z. Z starts from 1 and increments for each minor release.
