# Release Workflow
- As of NATS 2.11, the server follows a 6-month release cycle. 2.11 was released in March 2025.
- Version tagging follows semantic versioning with security fixes clearly marked.
- The `main` branch is for active development of features and bug fixes. Release branches are created for preparing patch releases. Releases are tagged with semantic versions
- The current and previous minor series are supported in terms of bug fixes and security patches.
- Binaries are released via [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server/releases) and Docker images are available as an [official image](https://hub.docker.com/_/nats).
- Preview releases for the next minor version, e.g. 2.14.0, become available once feature development is complete.
- Tagged releases as well as nightly Docker images of `main` (for testing) are available in the [synadia/nats-server](https://hub.docker.com/r/synadia/nats-server/tags) Docker repository.
