This then begs the question: What are the support plans for 2.x once 3.x is released?
2.2.x will be marked "stable" and "long term support", just like 1.1.x. The 1.1.x releases will no longer be supported for *anything*. 2.0 was released 4 years ago. There is no reason for anyone to be running 1.x.
There is going to be a period of time where 2.x deployments will continue to exist and folks will not want to experience the pain and disruption of upgrading to the new 3.x version. What will happen when problems are discovered in the last 2.x release?
People can submit patches to fix them. Or, perhaps they can purchase a support contract to help fund continuing development.
Will they be fixed and a new 2.x released in parallel with 3.x or will folks be told their only option is to perform a 2.x to 3.x version upgrade?
What happened with 1.x and 2.x? Alan DeKok.
