      The core libvirt module follows a time based plan, with releases made
      once a month on the 1st of each month give or take a few days. The only
      exception is at the start of the year where there are two 6 weeks gaps
      (first release in the middle of Jan, then skip the Feb release), giving
      a total of 11 releases a year. The Python and Perl modules will aim to
      release at the same time as the core libvirt module. Other modules have
      independant ad-hoc releases with no fixed time schedle.

      Since libvirt 2.0.0, a time based version numbering rule
469 470 471 472 473 474
      is applied to the core library releases. As such, the changes
      in version number have do not have any implications with respect
      to the scope of features or bugfixes included, the stability of
      the code, or the API / ABI compatibility (libvirt API / ABI is
      guaranteed stable forever). The rules applied for changing the
      libvirt version number are:

      Prior to 2.0.0, the major/minor numbers were incremented
491
      fairly arbitrarily, and maintenance releases appended a
492 493 494 495 496 497
      fourth digit. The language bindings will aim to use the
      same version number as the most recent core library API
      they support. The other modules have their own distinct
      release numbering sequence, though they generally aim
      to follow the above rules for incrementing major/minor/micro
      digits.

      These maintenance branches should only contain bug fixes, and no
      new features, backported from the master branch, and are
      supported as long as at least one downstream distribution
      expresses interest in a given branch.  These maintenance
513 514 515 516
      branches are considered during CVE analysis. In contrast
      to the primary releases which are made once a month, there
      is no formal schedule for the maintenance releases, which
      are made whenever there is a need to make available key
517 518 519
      bugfixes to downstream consumers. The language bindings
      and other modules generally do not provide stable branch
      releases.
