We’ve expanded security support for Six Labors libraries!
Each major remains eligible for security updates for 12 months after its successor’s first stable release, giving teams more time to upgrade.

For years we've been overwhelmed by the volume of code contributions we have to review, especially from new contributors. AI has made the problem much worse.
We are taking steps to reduce the burden on maintainers while still welcoming new contributors:
