 # Egeria Release Notes
 
-Below are the official releases of Egeria.  The project aims to
-produce a new release about once a month.  Each release includes
-new features and fixes to existing function.  The team aims to
-provide complete backward compatibility for all components that
-are officially released (to understand more about what it means to have released function see
-[Egeria Content Status](../open-metadata-publication/website/content-status)).
-If backwards compatible changes are not possible, it will be called out explicitly in the
-release notes with an explanation on how to upgrade.
-
-Each release will also upgrade the level of its dependencies to
-ensure Egeria is running with all of the latest security patches.
-We therefore recommend that you keep moving forward with us to
-get the best Egeria experience possible.
-
-One way you can help us is to feedback on your experiences, both good
-and bad.  We would love to hear from you.

-## Future Releases
-
-Our master branch is currently taking code for all future releases.
-Many of the features are large and the teams integrate code for
-partial function as soon as it is stable and has no impact on released function.
-So you will see support for much more function than is officially released.
-This way you can monitor and feedback on future items as they are developed.
-
-The [Road map for Egeria](../open-metadata-publication/website/roadmap)
-describes the end vision for Egeria and our current status.
-
-
