# Upgrade Django 2029

> **New versioning scheme**
>
> Django 2029 is the second release under the annual, calendar-year cycle
> adopted in [DEP 20][dep20] (the first was [Django 2028](/2028/)). Version
> numbers now carry the year of the feature release rather than an X.Y
> number — Django 2028, then Django 2029, and so on.
> 
> Each annual release gets three years of support: one year of bugfixes,
> followed by two years of security and data-loss fixes.
> 
> See the [DEP 20 announcement blog post][blog] and [DEP 20 itself][dep20]
> for background.
