== Release Support Policy ==

As general rule, we support whatever the latest version is plus the latest version of the previous release branch. Say if 1.1.1 is the latest release, and there is also 1.0.3, that's the ones we support. We do not support 1.0.2 and once 1.2.0 comes out, we drop support for 1.0.3 and 1.1.1 will be the oldest version supported


== Archived Releases ==

Old Apache CouchDB releases can be found in the [[http://archive.apache.org/dist/couchdb/|Apache CouchDB archive]].

Even older Apache Incubator releases of CouchDB can be found in the [[http://archive.apache.org/dist/incubator/couchdb/|Apache Incubator archive of CouchDB]].

These are provided for reference purposes only. It is recommended you use a current release of CouchDB.


== Verifying Releases ==

When downloading from a mirror please check the [[http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#md5|MD5]] and [[http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#sha-checksum|SHA]] checksums as well as verifying the [[http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#openpgp|OpenPGP]] compatible signature available from the main Apache site. The [[http://www.apache.org/dist/couchdb/KEYS|KEYS]] file contains the public keys used for signing release. It is recommended that a [[http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#web-of-trust|web of trust]] is used to confirm the identity of these keys.

You can check the OpenPGP signature with:

{{{
gpg --verify apache-couchdb-*.tar.gz.asc
}}}

You can check the MD5 checksum with:

{{{
md5sum --check apache-couchdb-*.tar.gz.md5
}}}

You can check the SHA checksum with:

{{{
sha1sum --check apache-couchdb-*.tar.gz.sha
}}}
