kops users run one of the [3 minor versions](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/release/versioning.md#supported-releases-and-component-skew) Kubernetes is supporting however we
do our best to support previous releases for some period.
Kops does not, however, support Kubernetes releases with a greater minor release number
than that of kops. A minor version is the second digit in the
release number: kops version 1.16.0 has a minor version of 16. The numbering
follows the semantic versioning specification: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
For example, kops 1.16.0 does not support Kubernetes 1.17.0, but kops 1.16.0
supports Kubernetes 1.16.5, 1.15.2, and several previous Kubernetes versions.
Kops does not, however, support Kubernetes releases that have either a greater major
release number or greater minor release number than it.
(The numbers before the first and second dots are the major and minor release numbers, respectively.)
For example, kops 1.16.0 does not support Kubernetes 1.17.0, but does
support Kubernetes 1.16.5, 1.15.2, and several previous Kubernetes versions.
