-### New Release Cycle
-
-Because this library has no third-party dependencies, CST.NET's release cycle will generally follow .NET's LTS cycle. This is why .NET 5 was skipped. Minor releases will consist of targeting latest LTS.
-
-For example, 2.5 adds .NET 8.0 next to 6.0 until the latter reaches end of life and finally 2.6 targets only 8.0. Keep in mind, this is all just hypothetical. Realistically, this could happen as soon as 2.2 because parameters will land as earlier as 2.1.

 ## 1.0.300
 
 - Minor patch.
