|
||
|
||
## Getting Started
|
||
|
||
To get instructions for your upgrade, follow the instructions given below for
|
||
your _currently installed_ release series until you are on the latest current version.
|
||
The upgrade guides will mention notable changes and link to relevant changelogs –
|
||
we recommend reviewing the changelog for versions between the one you are on and the
|
||
one you are upgrading to at each step to familiarize yourself with changes.
|
||
|
||
