You can enable semantic versioning on a channel that already has releases promoted to it without semantic versioning. Any subsequently promoted releases must use semantic versioning. In this case, the channel will have releases with and without semantic version numbers.

### Demotion
183+
184+
A channel release can be demoted from a channel. When a channel release is demoted, it will no longer be available for download, but it will not be withdrawn from environments where the release is already downloaded or installed. Its channel sequence and version will not be reused and for customer will appear to have been skipped. Un-demoting a release will restore its place in the channel sequence and make available for download and installation again.
