-# Current development version: 0.9.57
+# Current development version: 0.9.56.1
+
+This is probably a bugfix release: fixes, small features, new profiles. If we end up implementing something major
+we'll switch to a regular 0.9.57 release.
+
+# New Long Term Support (LTS) version
+
+We are rebasing our Long Term Support branch of Firejail. The current LTS version (0.9.38.x) is more than two years old.
+The new version updates the code base to 0.9.56. We target a reduction of approx. 40% of the code by removing rarely
+used features (chroot, overlay, rlimits, cgroups), incomplete features (private-bin, private-lib),
+and a lot of instrumentation (build profile feature, tracing, auditing, etc). Sandbox-specific security features such as
+seccomp, capabilities, filesystem whitelist/blacklist and networking are updated and hardened.
+
+We have an rc1 release out, the final version will follow in the next few weeks:
