+  Apache POI™ releases are available under the <a

2.0.</a>
+  from the <a href="site:download">Download</a> page.
+</p>
+<p>
+  The versioning scheme for Apache POI is based on the principles of
+  <a href="https://semver.org/";>Semantic Versioning 2.0.0</a>.
+</p>
+<p>
+  We started using this versioning scheme in Apache POI 4.0.0. Versions prior
+  to this did not follow exactly the same principles with the numbers 
typically being of the form
+  X.Y. X indicated the major version but there may in some cases, have been 
big changes between
+  minor versions.
+</p>
+<p>
+  We typically only release new versions and don't usually patch old releases.
+  We may consider patching old releases in exceptional circumstances.
+  It is recommended to always use the latest version of Apache POI.
