5 <h1>Roadmap
<i class=
"fas fa-road"></i></h1>
7 <p>PostgreSQL is a noncommercial, all volunteer, free software project, and as
8 such there is no formal list of feature requirements required for development.
9 We enjoy allowing developers to explore the topics of their choosing, though
10 we also ensure that all new features committed to PostgreSQL are thoroughly
11 vetted by our community of contributors and committers.
14 <h2>Upcoming minor releases
</h2>
16 The PostgreSQL project aims to make
<em>at least
</em> one minor release every quarter,
17 on a predefined schedule. If it becomes necessary due to an important bugfix or
18 security issue, more releases will be made between these dates, so this list should
19 be considered a minimum. At each of these dates, a new minor release will be made
20 for each
<a href=
"/support/versioning/">supported version
</a>.
23 The target date for these releases are, unless otherwise stated, the second
24 Thursday of February, May, August, and November. The current schedule for upcoming
25 releases is:git diff
