Milestones
- Shipped (✓ vX.Y) — implemented today, delivered in the version shown.
- v1.0 (MVP/GA) — the first-release scope: production-ready, commercially supportable.
- v1.1, v1.2, … — planned post-GA feature batches; ordered where the product’s roadmap states an order, otherwise unordered (see Milestones & Versions).
- v1.x — post-GA scope that is open and not yet sequenced.
- Unversioned — exploratory / research-tier; may never ship.
Milestones express prioritization and implementation reality — not delivery commitments or dates. The canonical vocabulary, version semantics, and per-product version milestones live on the Milestones & Versions page.
