# Release notes

Every released version of Outpost has a note here. Read the one for the version
you are moving to, and read every note between your current version and it: the
upgrade notes are cumulative and one of them may need a step before you start.

## What is in a note

Each note has the same seven sections, in the same order, with the same
anchors. A section with nothing in it is left out, except upgrade notes, which
always says something even when that something is that there is nothing to do.

| Section | What it covers |
| --- | --- |
| Highlights | The two or three changes most people care about. |
| Added | Behaviour that was not there before. |
| Changed | Behaviour that existed and now works differently. |
| Fixed | Problems that no longer happen. |
| Security | Security fixes, with severity and exposure. |
| Known issues | What is shipping broken, with the workaround. |
| Upgrade notes | What to do beyond installing the new version. |

## Channels

A version reaches you through one of four channels, and a note says which:

- **stable** is what you install in production.
- **rc** is a release candidate, published so that a deployment can test
  against it before it becomes stable.
- **qa** and **dev** are internal lanes. Notes for them appear here only when a
  change is worth reading about early.

## Versions and components

Components are versioned separately, because they release separately. Depot,
the Agent and Tray each have their own numbering, and a Depot version does not
imply an Agent version. Where a version of one requires a version of
another, the upgrade notes say so.
