@@ -8,7 +8,8 @@ nodevu is composed of a set of modules:
   * [core](./core/): this is the core, online-only module. It calls out to sources that have version information about Node.js and does the heavy lifting of coercion, merging, and reasoning about that data into a format that is easily accessible and (hopefully!) extremely useful. It transparently provides data from the sources it fetches from, but also adds additional useufl context that it figures out based on time, context, and other signals.
   * [static](./static/): this is the offline-only version of nodevu. It's simply an interface to both the full context of [core](./core/), in addition to a few subsets of the data core provides. It is automatically updated when there's new information available, though there aren't gaurantees on when that will be available. This is mostly useful if you're not particularly picky about when your version information is availble.
 - Additional Utilities
-  * [earliest](./earliest/): this is a utility for finding the earliest LTS or Security release in a Node.js release line.
+  * [oldest](./oldest/): this is a utility for finding the oldest LTS or Security release in a Node.js release line.
+  * [newest](./newest/): this is a utility for finding the newest LTS or Security release in a Node.js release line.
   * [ranges](./ranges/): a module that provides information about ranges of Node.js versions.
   * [aliases](./aliases/): a module that provides information about aliases for Node.js versions.

-
-A module that returns earliest LTS or Security release of a given Node.js release line.
-
-## Usage
-
-```js

-
-const earliestLts = earliest('v16', 'lts')
-const earliestSecurity = earliest('v16', 'security')

-
-## API
-
-This module exports three functions:
-
-- `earliest(name, type)`
-  - `name` (string): Node.js release line name. Examples: `v16`, `v11`, `v8`, `v0.10`.
-  - `type` (string): `lts` or `security`.
-- `lts(name)`
-  - `name` (string): Node.js release line name. Examples: `v16`, `v11`, `v8`, `v0.10`.
-- `security(name)`
