versioning:
  scheme: semver-like product versioning per component (e.g. Octopus Authentication Server 6.8.7,
    Octopus Desk for Windows 4.3.6, Octopus Desk for Mac 4.4.5, AD Agent 3.1.1)
  note: >-
    Versioning is PRODUCT/BUILD versioning of a deployed appliance and its agents, not URL or header
    versioning of a public web API. The Management Console REST API ships with the server build it is
    part of; SDO publishes no separate API version policy.

  model: two-stage EOL then EOS
  definitions:
    end_of_life: the product version will no longer receive new features or enhancements
    end_of_support: the product version will no longer receive technical support or security updates
  window: >-
    Published tables give each product version an explicit EOL date and a later EOS date, generally
    six to twelve months apart, and customers are told to upgrade to a supported version before the
    End of Support date.

  - product: Octopus Authentication Server

    The status JSON is Atlassian Statuspage's own Status API, hosted for SDO. It is a real
    machine-readable operational surface for this provider but it is NOT an SDO-authored contract,
    so no OpenAPI is claimed for it.
