-
-*eProsima Fast DDS* maintains several releases with different support cycles.
-Major releases are scarce and they are made when public API is broken (more information about *eProsima Fast DDS* versioning can be found [here](https://github.com/eProsima/Fast-DDS/blob/master/VERSIONING.md)).
-Latest major release is v2.0.0 (June 2020), which introduced the DDS compliant API.
-
-Each quarter, a new Fast DDS minor version with new features is released.
-By default, *eProsima Fast DDS* minor releases have a lifecycle of **6 months**.
-However, the life of certain branches can be extended depending on costumer and user needs.
-Within the support period of any minor version, there may be several patch releases that either add new functionalities in an ABI compatible way or fix possible issues.
-Before the minor release end of life (EOL) date, a final patch release including the latest fixes will be made available if there are any changes not included in any previous patch release of the same minor version.
