<!-- overview -->

10+
The Kubernetes project maintains release branches for the most recent three minor releases ({{< skew latestVersion >}}, {{< skew prevMinorVersion >}}, {{< skew oldestMinorVersion >}}). Kubernetes 1.19 and newer receive approximately 1 year of patch support. Kubernetes 1.18 and older received approximately 9 months of patch support.
11+
12+
Kubernetes versions are expressed as **x.y.z**,
13+
where **x** is the major version, **y** is the minor version, and **z** is the patch version, following [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) terminology.
14+
15+

# Kubernetes Patch Releases
13+
14+
Schedule and team contact information for Kubernetes patch releases.
15+
16+
For general information about Kubernetes release cycle, see the
17+
[release process description].
18+
19+
## Cadence
20+
21+
Our typical patch release cadence is monthly. It is
22+
commonly a bit faster (1 to 2 weeks) for the earliest patch releases
23+
after a 1.X minor release. Critical bug fixes may cause a more
24+
immediate release outside of the normal cadence. We also aim to not make
25+
releases during major holiday periods.
26+
27+
## Contact
28+
29+
See the [Release Managers page][release-managers] for full contact details on the Patch Release Team.
30+
31+
Please give us a business day to respond - we may be in a different timezone!
32+
33+
In between releases the team is looking at incoming cherry-pick
34+
requests on a weekly basis. The team will get in touch with
35+
submitters via GitHub PR, SIG channels in Slack, and direct messages
36+
in Slack and [email](mailto:[email protected])
37+
if there are questions on the PR.
38+
39+
## Cherry-Picks
40+
41+
Please follow the [cherry-pick process].
42+
43+
Cherry-picks must be merge-ready in GitHub with proper labels (eg:
44+
approved, lgtm, release note) and passing CI tests ahead of the
45+
cherry-pick deadline. This is typically two days before the target
46+
release, but may be more. Earlier PR readiness is better, as we
47+
need time to get CI signal after merging your cherry-picks ahead
48+
of the actual release.
49+
50+
Cherry-pick PRs which miss merge criteria will be carried over and tracked
51+
for the next patch release.
52+
53+
## Support Period
54+
55+
In accordance with the [yearly support KEP][yearly-support], the Kubernetes
56+
Community will support active patch release series for a period of roughly
57+
fourteen (14) months.
58+
59+
The first twelve months of this timeframe will be considered the standard
60+
period.
61+
62+
Towards the end of the twelve month, the following will happen:
63+
64+
- [Release Managers][release-managers] will cut a release
65+
- The patch release series will enter maintenance mode
66+
67+
During the two-month maintenance mode period, Release Managers may cut
68+
additional maintenance releases to resolve:
69+
70+
- CVEs (under the advisement of the Product Security Committee)
71+
- dependency issues (including base image updates)
72+
- critical core component issues
73+
74+
At the end of the two-month maintenance mode period, the patch release series
75+
will be considered EOL (end of life) and cherry picks to the associated branch
76+
are to be closed soon afterwards.
77+
78+
Note that the 28th of the month was chosen for maintenance mode and EOL target
79+
dates for simplicity (every month has it).
80+
81+
## Upcoming Monthly Releases
82+
83+
Timelines may vary with the severity of bug fixes, but for easier planning we
84+
will target the following monthly release points. Unplanned, critical
85+
releases may also occur in between these.
