That's what's being discussed, and Mick is proposing requiring it officially,
to reduce support burden.

Nothing that I'm aware of, but how many bugs are unique to 3.11 that have not
been discovered?
> Dropping support for upgrading from 3.0 to 3.11
Nobody is proposing dropping support, but my personal preference would be to
officially endorse encouraging users to go directly 3.0->4.0, which would
reduce the support burden for 3.0->3.11 and 3.11->4.0, as many users will skip
3.11 entirely if we encourage them to do so. If you would prefer to officially
encourage 3.0->3.11->4.0, and I would prefer to officially encourage 3.0->4.0,
it seems reasonable to split the support burden for the paths we want to
officially endorse, and endorse both?

What has been fixed in 3.0 that hasn't been merged into 3.11 ?
Dropping support for upgrading from 3.0 to 3.11 would be a weird deviation
from the general practice of being able to upgrade from one major version
to the next.
