About feature releases
This is a feature release, which means that it will be supported for 6 months after the release date or 2 months after the release of a succeeding feature release (whichever date is later). It also means that if you are running a previous feature release (such as versions 6.1), you have 2 months to upgrade to version 6.13.1 if you want to keep running on a supported release.
For a full description of long-term-supported and feature releases, open the SPS product page on the Support Portal and navigate to Self Service Tools > Product Support > Product Life Cycle & Policies > Product Support Policies > Software Product Support Lifecycle Policy.
