Gopls release policy

Gopls releases follow semver, with major changes and new features introduced only in new minor versions (i.e. versions of the form v*.N.0 for some N). Subsequent patch releases contain only cherry-picked fixes or superficial updates.

In order to align with the Go release timeline, we aim to release a new minor version of Gopls approximately every three months, with patch releases approximately every month, according to the following table:

MonthVersion(s)
Janv*.<N+0>.0
Jan-Marv*.<N+0>.*
Aprv*.<N+1>.0
Apr-Junv*.<N+1>.*
Julv*.<N+2>.0
Jul-Sepv*.<N+2>.*
Octv*.<N+3>.0
Oct-Decv*.<N+3>.*
