+Make sure to install latest updates before you begin. If new functionality
+or a breaking change in RouterOS `7.n` is used in my scripts I push my
+change some time after `7.(n+1)` was released. At any time you should have
+at least two minor and their bugfix releases to choose from.
 
-* `stable` - the latest version considered stable for daily use, including
-   new features

-temporarily.
