Format: dd/mm/yyyy
- Planning: preparations, evaluation if the dates can be kept.
- Freeze: No new PRs will be accepted after this date, unless they are bugfixes. Project is branched from master. Usually 2 weeks.
- RC1: First release candidate, will only accept critical bugfixes. Usually 1 week.
- RC2: Second release candidates, will only accept blocking bugfixes. Usually 1 week.
- Release: Date of Release tag.
- Releases follow the format: Major-Minor-Fixes (x.y.z)
- Major: ESP-IDF major update or breaking changes (along minor changes, new features and fixes).
- Minor: ESP-IDF minor update, addition of new features (along all fixes).
- Fixes: bugfixes only.
- The launch of a new Major/Minor will replace the previous release.
- Arduino for ESP32 Releases do not outlive the ESP-IDF they were built upon.
- Back-ports of Arduino Releases are evaluated on case by case.
- No back-ports over outdated/unsupported ESP-IDF releases.
- Arduino for ESP32 and Arduino Component for ESP-IDF follow the same release schedule.
