Release 3.0
-----------
Corda 3.0 is here and brings with it wire stability and a host of other exciting features that aim to enhance
the developer and user experience whilst providing for the long term usability of deployed Corda instances. It
will provide functionality to ensure anyone wishing to move to the anticipated release of R3 Corda can do so
seamlessly and with the assurance stateful data persisted to the vault will remain understandable between
newer and older nodes.

example, our `Cordapp template <https://github.com/corda/cordapp-template-kotlin/tree/release-V3>`_ is structured like that.
