Note that we'll need to update external references to the 12-week cadence later (e.g. in https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)

|

| For the remainder of 2021, we will also be extending our supported version policy from the latest three versions to the latest four versions of Electron. When the 8 week cadence begins in 2022, we'll continue to [support the latest three major versions](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/support#supported-versions), as well as the beta, alpha and nightly release. |

This is an initial draft release for our announcement to
Target Blog Publish Date: July 14
Target Electron 15 Alpha Date: July 20
Why?: There are several reasons we want to do this that are outlined in the blog post, but key among them:
The Releases WG mulled over several options for a cadence that would both a) get us on even-numbered extended stables for Chromium and b) didn't include a three version skip that might disqualify apps from the Microsoft Store. This was what we ultimately landed on, with the caveat of getting buy-in from all members and other major maintainers who haven't yet had a chance to see the proposal and give their opinions.
All feedback/concerns appreciated.
