+ 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.
