- For **Security Issues**, do not report them via GitHub. Kindly disclose these as explained in this [document](https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/blob/dev/SECURITY_POLICY.md).

* Official Galaxy versions are tagged on the [Galaxy Project's GitHub releases page](https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/releases) as `vYY.MM`. e.g. *v21.01*
* Each version also has an official branch in the GitHub repo named `release_YY.MM`. e.g. *release_21.01*
* Galaxy versions will be supported with security fixes, bug patches and other improvements for [one year](https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/blob/dev/SECURITY_POLICY.md#supported-versions) from the time of release at which time they will become "End of Life" and will no longer be supported.

Before upgrading your Galaxy server to the latest version (or even a new version for that matter) - It is **HIGHLY recommended** that you read the release notes for that version. The notes are *very extensive* and may contain important information on any new features, links and how to configure them for your server.

# Ongoing maintenance

The Galaxy development community continually support release versions of Galaxy [for 1 year.](https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/blob/dev/SECURITY_POLICY.md#supported-versions) They regularly update releases with bug fixes, patches and security enhancements. Therefore it is important that we as administrators keep our Galaxy servers up to date regardless of which release we are running.

Therefore it is important that we as administrators keep our Galaxy servers up to date regardless of which release we are running.

The easiest way to do this is to regularly re-run the Ansible playbook. It will check with GitHub and grab any new changes to Galaxy since the last time you ran it and automatically keep everything up to date. The large **usegalaxy.\*** servers all re-run the playbook on a regular schedule for this purpose.
