Release Policy

In this document we describe our versioning policy and principles we use when choosing the version number for the next release.

Version number format 

MōBrowser version number format is MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.

MAJOR 

The MAJOR version is incremented when a significant backward-incompatible API change is made. For example, this can happen when new language features are used or the architecture of the framework has been significantly changed.

MINOR 

The MINOR version is incremented when the API has been extended with new functionality. Most of the time the changes are backward-compatible. However, a minor version might include some breaking changes. Usually it happens when we migrate to the latest Chromium build where some functionality is not available anymore or has been significantly changed.

PATCH 

The PATCH version is incremented when some smaller enhancements or fixes are made. For example, when security fixes are introduced in Chromium they are likely to be available in a patch version of the framework.

Patch releases do not introduce incompatible changes.
