I'm not sure I see a valid rationale for including "Latest preview version" in the legend at the bottom if and only if there is currently such a release; it seems like extra effort to put it in during the "next major release is in beta" period and take it out again when that beta period ends, lather, rinse, repeat.

(I'm not sure what a "future release" would be, so I don't see a rationale for including that in the legend.)

I agree, it seems redundant to have both "Latest preview version" and "future release". They should probably be merged into one color in the legend, preferably blue. What I'm not sure about is the intent of the editor who put in those colors. Maybe orange was supposed to be for betas of minor versions and blue for major versions? I'm not sure because those colors have never been used in that context. Herbfur (Eric, He/Him) (talk) 16:56, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
