Planned |
|
Actively developed, be prepared for possible significant changes. |
|
Reasonably stable, but potentially incomplete; any significant changes/additions will generally include backwards-compatiblity. |
|
Mature. Additions/improvements possible, but no major changes planned. |
|
Pending deprecation. Might be deprecated in a future version. |
