JB, I don't think that we need a policy on which Spark versions we intend to keep. Having discussions like this are more effective. Just look at the support for Spark 2.4, which we kept for a lot longer to help people transition. Policy is a way of making decisions by algorithm and I don't think we want to do that here.
