This was mentioned in another thread, but I wanted to highlight this proposed change to our release policy:
https://github.com/apache/spark-website/pull/136 Right now we don't have any guidance about how long feature branches get maintenance releases. I'm proposing 18 months as a guide -- not a hard limit, just a target. If feature releases happen every 6 months, that means master + 3 feature branches are 'live' at any one time, which seems like plenty. This also means 2.1.x is now EOL. Comments? on the PR.
