[`arrow-flight`], etc.) are released on the same schedule with the same versions
as the [`parquet`] and [`parquet-derive`] crates.

Starting June 2024, we plan to release new major versions with potentially
breaking API changes at most once a quarter, and release incremental minor versions in
the intervening months. See [this ticket] for more details.
This crate releases every month. We release new major versions (with potentially
breaking API changes) at most once a quarter, and release incremental minor
versions in the intervening months. See [this ticket] for more details.

To keep our maintenance burden down, we do regularly scheduled releases (major
and minor) from the `master` branch. How we handle PRs with breaking API changes
is described in the [contributing] guide.

[contributing]: CONTRIBUTING.md#breaking-changes

For example:
Planned Release Schedule
