SIG-Release

Intro

Welcome to SIG-Release, home of release and feature management. If you are new to this repository, you might find the getting started guide useful. If you are interested in the current state of planning, have a look at our Release Planning Board.

Catena-X Standards are the foundation for certifying any software product operating in the Catena-X data space. Those standards are the binding reference to obtain a valid certificate.

To make adopting the latest Catena-X Standards easier, reference implementations are provided through the Eclipse Tractus-X Project

Release Cycle - major vs. minor release

Tractus-X operates on a quarterly release cycle. Each quarter, a new Tractus-X release following CalVer is released.

Each Tractus-X release contains multiple products.

Once per year, Tractus-X releases a major release, making the remaining three releases minor releases. A major release may contain critical breaking changes that have a major impact on data space participants, such as changes to enablement services. A minor release contains backward compatible functionality. In addition, patch versions provide backward compatible bug and security fixes.

Please check the Change Log(s) for content, known knowns, and backward compatibility since the calendar versioning scheme shows the year and month of release.

See planning, for information about planning and roadmap process. See product release, for information about singular product releases. See Tractus-X release, for our overarching release strategy.
