## Network consensus protocol upgrades (hard fork schedule) ## Scheduled mandatory software upgrades
Monero uses a fixed-schedule network consensus protocol upgrade (hard fork) mechanism to implement new features. This means that users of Monero (end users and service providers) need to run current versions and upgrade their software on a regular schedule. Network consensus protocol upgrades occur during the months of March and September. Required software for these consensus protocol upgrades is available prior to the date of the consensus protocol upgrade. Please check the git repository prior to this date for the proper Monero software version. Below is the historical schedule and the projected schedule for the next upgrade.

## Release staging schedule and protocol ## Release staging schedule and protocol
Approximately 3 months prior to a network consensus protocol upgrade, a branch from Master will be created with the new release version tag. Pull requests that address bugs should then be made to both Master and the new release branch. Pull requests that require extensive review and testing (generally, optimizations and new features) should *not* be made to the release branch.
