 ## Adding as dependency
 
-`dlt` follows the semantic versioning with the [`MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`](https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/#semantic-versioning) pattern. Currently, we are using **pre-release versioning** with the major version being 0.
+`dlt` follows the semantic versioning with the [`MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`](https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/#semantic-versioning) pattern.
 
-- `minor` version change means breaking changes
-- `patch` version change means new features that should be backward compatible
-- any suffix change, e.g., `post10` -> `post11`, is considered a patch
+* `major` means breaking changes and removed deprecations
+* `minor` new features, sometimes automatic migrations
+* `patch` bug fixes
 
 We suggest that you allow only `patch` level updates automatically:
-* Using the [Compatible Release Specifier](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/version-specifiers/#compatible-release). For example **dlt~=0.3.10** allows only versions **>=0.3.10** and less than **<0.4**
-* Poetry [caret requirements](https://python-poetry.org/docs/dependency-specification/). For example **^0.3.10** allows only versions **>=0.3.10** to **<0.4**
+* Using the [Compatible Release Specifier](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/version-specifiers/#compatible-release). For example **dlt~=1.0** allows only versions **>=1.0** and less than **<1.1**
