# Security & Maintenance
<p class="lead">
Support of Alaveteli is divided into four groups: New features, bug fixes, security issues, and severe security issues. They are handled as follows:

## New Features
Only the [latest development branch](https://github.com/mysociety/alaveteli/tree/develop/) gets new features which will be released in the next main release.
## Bug Fixes
- Only the current release will receive bug fixes

- Bug fixes will be applied to current development branch
## Security Issues

- Security issues will get a new release (e.g. `0.19.0` gets a new release to `0.19.1`) for the current and previous releases

## Severe Security Issues
