# Release Policy
Applicable from colorls v1.0.0 onwards
### Versioning
Colorls follows semantic versioning whereby the version number is always in the form MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
- Patch bump : Bug fixes
- Minor bump : New features (with backwards compatibility)
- Major bump : API breaking changes
For Major and Minor bumps release candidates should be released around 2 weeks prior to the bump and are indicated by MAJOR.MINOR.0.rc.
For more information see the full semantic versioning specification at http://semver.org/.
### Release Timing
Patch releases should be done after every fix of a major bug (as tagged in the github issue tracker).
Major releases should be kept to the minimum.
