View source for Policies/Flatpak Runtime Update Policy

=NOT OFFICIAL=

=Announcement=
Whenever a new runtime branch is created or an old one is being EOL-ed an announcement should be made either on https://discuss.kde.org/c/announcement/9

=Qt Support=
At a given point in time we will support the latest two Qt minor releases, e.g. 6.7 and 6.6. 

==End Of Life==
Once a new Qt minor version is released we will wait once month for marking the previous -2 branch as EOL

==Lifetime==
This also gives around 10-12 months of support for each Qt 6.x branch. 

=Qt major version=
This policy applies only within a major version of Qt, that is, Qt 5.x, Qt 6.x, Qt 7.x are supported independently of each-other in regards to Qt Support, End Of Life, etc.

=Freedesktop SDK runtime=
Each Qt based runtime will only target one Freedesktop SDK runtime. ''Exceptions might be made when a given minor Qt version reaches very long stable support like Qt 5.15''
