+Release Policy
+==============
+
+PVXS Release numbering follows the `Semantic Versioning <https://semver.org/>`_
+scheme of MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH with the following amendments.
+
+* A change to the MAJOR number indicates that a backwards incompatible change to some part of the API.
+  This may not effect every user application.
+  This policy is intended to provide users with confidence in upgrading when MAJOR does not change.
+* The PATCH number will only be incremented if changes to the public API are believed to maintain ABI compatibility.
+  MINOR will be incremented when a known ABI incompatible change is made.
+  Library SONAMES take the form MAJOR.MINOR.
+* At this time only one version number is maintained, which is applied to both
+  the main libpvxs.so and the auxiliary libpvxsIoc.so.
+  Statements about API or ABI compatibility apply to both libraries as a group.
+
+Each release will be accompanied by a signed tag in the repository,
+which may be verified with the author's GPG key
+`5C159E669D69E2D4C4E74E540C8E1C8347330CFB <http://keys.gnupg.net/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x5C159E669D69E2D4C4E74E540C8E1C8347330CFB>`_.
