Release notes

Releases of documentation and code are using the same version numbers. The version numbering system (tries and) follows the semantic versioning principles:

Note

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

1. MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes

2. MINOR version when you add functionality in a backward compatible manner

3. PATCH version when you make backward compatible bug fixes
