| + | ====== Release policy ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The releases done by KAMAILIO (OpenSER) project are guided by the following policies. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Versioning ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | 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 | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Major 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 | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Minor release ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | 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=" | ||
