+### Release policy
+
+The `main` branch is used for the development of the latest versions of the collections, and may contain breaking changes. The `stable-*` branches (e.g. `stable-1` for the `1.x.y` releases) are used to cut additional minor or patch releases if needed, but we do not provide official support for multiple versions of the collection.
