a. Lifecycle Documentation Release 

We are pleased to announce the release of our Lifecycle and Support Practices documentation this month. It explains how DIS lifecycle dates are sourced, validated, and updated, including when N/A is used and how major-version curation is applied. This gives customers clearer visibility into lifecycle data quality and stronger confidence in lifecycle-based reporting and decisions.
