Releases and supported versions

This page summarizes the public release, security-update, and upgrade support policies for Weblate. For maintainer release steps, see 发布 Weblate. For upgrade commands, see 升级 Weblate. For published release artifacts, SBOMs, signatures, and provenance attestations, see Release artifacts and verification.

发行周期

Weblate uses calendar versioning with monthly releases. The version format is <YEAR>.<MONTH>.<PATCH> with a numeric, non-zero-padded month. The <PATCH> part is omitted for the first release in a month when it would be 0, for example 2026.5. Patch releases use the full version number, for example 2026.5.1.

Monthly releases are usually published at the beginning of the month. Patch releases include bug fixes, security fixes, and dependency updates which should not wait for the next monthly release.

Docker 容器包含额外的版本部件来跟踪容器本身变化,比如依赖项。即便在 Weblate 版本省略 0 补丁部件时,固定的 Docker 映像标签仍同时包含补丁部件和这个构建部件。这些更新可能包含安全更新。

安全更新

Weblate provides security updates to address vulnerabilities and enhance the application's security posture. Only the latest release is guaranteed to receive security updates. Users are encouraged to keep Weblate up to date to benefit from the latest security improvements.
