+# Compatible Dependents
+
+To make upgrading easier we aim to minimize introduction of breaking changes with the followings:
+
+1. Provisioner API
+2. Helm Chart
+
+When we introduce a breaking change, we do so only in as described in this document.
+
+## What We Keep Compatible
+
+2. The application itself
+3. The documentation of the application
+
+## When Do We Break Compatibility?
+
+According to [Semantic Versioning 2.0.0](https://semver.org/) which Karpenter follows in our release versions, while in
+major version zero (v0.y.z) [anything may change at any time](https://semver.org/#spec-item-4). However, to further
+protect our customers during this phase we will only introduce breaking changes in minor releases (releases that
+increment y in x.y.z). Note this does not mean every minor upgrade has a breaking change as we will also increment the
+minor version when we release a new feature.
+
+The users should therefore check to see if there is breaking change, every time they are upgrading to a new minor
+version.
+
+## How Do We Break Incompatibility?
+
+When there is a breaking change we will:
+
+* Increment the minor version when in major version 0
+* Add a permanent separate file named `migrating_to_vx.y.z.md` to our website (linked at the bottom of this page)
+  clearly explaining the breaking change and what needs to be done on the customer side to ensure a safe upgrade
+* Add the sentence “This is a breaking change, please refer to `migrating_to_x.y.z.md` for upgrade instructions” to the
+  top of the release notes and in all our announcements
+
+## How Do We Find Incompatibilities
+
+Besides the peer review process for all changes to the code base we also do the followings in order to find
+incompatibilities:
+* (To be implemented) Automated tests to see if installing, uninstalling, upgrading from an older version and downgrading
+to an older version to check the compatibility of the application
+* (To be implemented) Turn the commands in our
+documentation into scripts that we can automatically run to find incompatibilities between the application and
+documentation
+
+## Nightly Builds
+
+(To be implemented) Every night we will build and release everything that has been checked into the source code. This
+allows us to detect problems including breaking changes and potential drifts in our external dependencies sooner than we
+otherwise would. It also allows some of advanced users who have their own nightly builds to test the upcoming changes
+before they are released.
+
+## Release Candidates
+
+(To be implemented) We are considering having release candidates when we are in major version 1. By adopting this
+practice we allow our users who are early adopters to test out new releases before they are available to the wider
+community thereby providing us with early feedback which would result in more stable releases.
+
+## Security Patches
+
+While we are in major version 0 we will not release security patches to older versions, rather we provide the patches in
+the latest versions. When at major version 1 we will have an EOL (end of life) policy where we provide security patches
+for a subset of older versions and deprecate the others.
