LibreNMS Releases

We try to ensure that breaking changes aren't introduced by utilising various automated code testing, syntax testing and unit testing along with manual code review. However bugs can and do get introduced as well as major refactoring to improve the quality of the code base.

With this in mind, we provide a monthly stable release which is released on or around the last Sunday of the month. Code pull requests (aside from Bug fixes) are stopped days leading up to the release to ensure that we have a clean working branch at that point.

The releases are titled after that month in the format YYYYMM, i.e 201608. The Changelog is also updated and will reference the release number and date so you can see what changes have been made since the last release.
