+## v0.5.1 — 2026-05-30  (14.0)
+
+The **Odoo 14.0 port is complete and verified** — the full automated suite (69 tests) passes
+on a real Odoo 14.0 instance and the module installs cleanly. This branch is ready for the
+ITSulu production instance.
+
+### Changed (Odoo 14 compatibility)
+
+- Email template moved back to Odoo 14's Jinja2 syntax.
+- Admin views adjusted to Odoo 14's conditional-visibility format (this had been blocking the
+  module from installing on 14).
+- Test suite updated for Odoo 14's test framework and database APIs.
+- Performance query budget tuned for Odoo 14 (it issues a few more framework queries than 17).
+
+See [PORTING.md](PORTING.md) for the full list of Odoo-14 deltas resolved.

+
+## v0.5.0 — 2026-05-30
+
+Sets up support for **multiple Odoo Community versions**, each on its own branch — the same
+model the Odoo project itself uses. We initially target **Odoo 19.0** (the latest stable) and
+**Odoo 14.0** (the version ITSulu runs in production).
+
+### Added
+
+- **Per-Odoo-version branches.** The addon now lives on a branch per Odoo release — `19.0`
+  and `14.0` — so each can track the API differences of its Odoo version independently. Check
+  out the branch that matches your Odoo install.
+- **Version tooling is Odoo-aware.** The release helper (`bump-version.sh`) now reads which
+  Odoo series a branch targets and stamps the addon and release tags accordingly
+  (e.g. `19.0-v0.5.0`, `14.0-v0.5.0`), so one product version can ship on several Odoo versions.
+- A `PORTING.md` on each version branch tracks what still needs checking for that Odoo release.
+
+### Notes
+
+- This `14.0` branch is the target for the **ITSulu production** instance. It is **seeded from
+  the 17.0 codebase**, so the Odoo-14 port is still being completed — most notably the email
+  template must move back to Odoo 14's older Jinja syntax. See `PORTING.md`.
+- Documentation (`README`, `CLAUDE.md` §15) now describes the branch-per-version model.

+### Odoo version branches (one series per branch — the odoo/odoo model)
+
+The addon targets **multiple Odoo Community releases, one per long-lived branch**, exactly like
+[odoo/odoo](https://github.com/odoo/odoo) (`19.0`, `18.0`, …, `14.0`). Initially we ship:
+
+| Branch | Odoo series | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| `19.0` | Odoo Community 19.0 | Latest stable — primary supported line |
+| `14.0` | Odoo Community 14.0 | The version ITSulu currently runs in production |
+
+Rules:
+
+- **Each Odoo series lives on its own branch.** Never mix two Odoo versions in one branch.
+  The branch name *is* the series (`19.0`, `14.0`).
+- The **product version** (`VERSION`, e.g. `0.5.0`) is shared across series — the same feature
+  set, ported per Odoo release. The Odoo **manifest** version is `<series>.<product>` →
+  `19.0.0.5.0` on `19.0`, `14.0.0.5.0` on `14.0`.
+- `bump-version.sh` resolves the series from `.odoo-series` (a one-line file at repo root),
+  else the branch name, else `17.0`. The `Dockerfile` base image (`FROM odoo:<series>`) and
+  the manifest prefix must match the branch.
+- **Release tags are namespaced by series** so one product version ships on several branches:
+  `19.0-v0.5.0`, `14.0-v0.5.0`. (The pre-multi-version release `v0.4.8` predates this scheme.)
+- A feature is "done" only when it lands on **every** supported series branch. Port a fix to
+  each branch (cherry-pick or re-implement) — Odoo APIs differ across 14 → 19, so a clean
+  cherry-pick is the exception, not the rule.
+- Odoo-version-specific gotchas (mail.template syntax, `blog.post` fields, rendering APIs) are
+  in §11.5 and the §12 failure table. Always confirm which series you are on before fixing.
+
 ### Sources of truth & where the version lives
 
 The repo-root **`VERSION`** file is the single source of truth. These are kept in sync:
 
-| File | Form | Notes |
+| File | Form (example on branch `19.0`) | Notes |
 |---|---|---|
-| `VERSION` | `0.4.8` | Source of truth — plain text, one line |
+| `VERSION` | `0.5.0` | Source of truth for the product version — plain text, one line. Same across series branches |
-| `addons/itsulu_blog_publisher/__manifest__.py` | `'version': '17.0.0.4.8'` | Odoo manifest = `<odoo_series>.<product_version>` = `17.0` + `0.4.8` |
+| `.odoo-series` | `19.0` | The Odoo series this branch targets (one line). Drives manifest prefix + tag namespace |
-| `README.md` | `**Version:** 0.4.8` | Header line + status footer |
+| `addons/itsulu_blog_publisher/__manifest__.py` | `'version': '19.0.0.5.0'` | Odoo manifest = `<series>.<product>` |
-| `CHANGELOG.md` | `## v0.4.8 — <date>` | Release notes section per version |
+| `Dockerfile` | `FROM odoo:19.0` | Base image must match the series |
-| git tag | `v0.4.8` | Annotated tag; message = the CHANGELOG section |

+
+This branch targets **Odoo Community 14.0** — the version **ITSulu runs in production**. It was
+seeded from the 17.0 baseline and ported to Odoo 14 APIs.
+
+> The product feature set is the same across all Odoo branches; only the Odoo-API-specific code
