extended release schedule - STEMLab/geotools GitHub Wiki
Description
Change to the release schedule:
- Drop back to releasing every other month
- extend the release schedule with a 6 month maintenance phase
This results in two release branches (stable and maintenance), we will still release every month - alternating between these two branches as appropriate. GeoTools updates will be less frequent, and will be available longer.
