  Horde 6 roughly follows Semantic Versioning https://semver.org/

  Feature releases get security support until two months into the next  
feature release.
  The latest feature release of a major release gets up to 12 months  
of security support after a new major release.

  Bug fix and feature backporting currently has no promise but we will  
generally accept backport PRs if the workload can reasonably be handled.
+
+## Platform requirements
+
+Horde 6.0 stable releases will target PHP 8.1 and higher but will  
probably not work on PHP 9.
+
+Feature releases may raise the lower version bound to the oldest PHP  
version still in support as of  
https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php
+
+Example: PHP 8.2 has security support until end of 2026 so a feature  
release in October 2026 could raise the minimum supported version to  
8.2 but a feature release in Feburary 2027 could raise the minimum  
supported version to 8.3.
+
+These bumps don't happen as a matter of course but only when it makes  
sense to use a language feature which requires the new version or when  
a dependency already requires it.
