-We now focus exclusively on providing fixes to bugs, in the 1.2.x branch of the library, that
-satisfy at least one of the following criteria:
-  - We receive a report of, or detect, a security weakness which is then verified
-  - A major browser releases a version that will cause current production applications
-    to stop working
-  - The [jQuery library](https://jquery.com/) releases a version that will cause
-    current production applications to stop working

-AngularJS Material 1.1.x will get a new version, if and only if, we verify a new severe security

-## <a name="releasing"></a> Our Release Processes
-
-To preserve stability with applications currently using AngularJS Material, we do not follow semver.
-We have three types of releases:
-
-*  `major` :  major releases will be done in the separate [Angular Material](https://github.com/angular/components) repo.
- This type of release will not be used within AngularJS Material.
-*  `minor`:  contain breaking changes in addition to patch release changes.
-*  `patch`:  non-breaking changes (no API, CSS, UX changes that will cause breaks in existing AngularJS Material applications).
-
-##### Patch Releases
-
-The patch builds (1.2.1, 1.2.2, etc.) are prepared based on commits in the `master` branch;
-which contains only non-breaking changes (I.e. bug fixes, new features, API additions, and minimal
-non-breaking CSS changes). We are targeting `patch` releases every 2 weeks.
-
-##### Minor Releases
-
-The minor builds (1.1.0, 1.2.0, 1.3.0) can contain breaking changes to CSS, APIs, and UX.
-Our formal release of `minor` builds is much less frequent. The release process for `minor` builds is currently
-being re-evaluated.
-
-> For the purposes of AngularJS Material, you *could* think of the patch releases as being *minor* changes,
-  and the 'minor' releases as being *major* changes according to semver.
