KDE provides minor point releases approximately every month after a major point release of the main modules.

As stable releases these are recommended to a wide user base who expect a high degree of stability.  Changes should therefore be verifiable, reliable and regression free.
 
These releases must only contain:
* Severe bugs: security vulnerabilities, severe regressions from previous releases, data loss bugs
* Fixes to bugs which are easy to verify
* Updated translations
* Updated manuals
 
They must not contain:
* API changes in public libraries
* New strings
 
In case you need absolutely new API or new strings to fix a important bug, approval from the relevant teams is needed.
* For API changes in public libraries you need the approval of kde-core-devel
* For new strings you need the approval of kde-i18n-doc
