    Guys,

    I'd like to understand what your current planning is. According to "How
    We Plan Releases" [1] Subversion 1.10.x should have been long gone, but
    [2] says otherwise.
    What is your way forward, do you plan 1.15.x, 1.14.x will obsolete
    1.10.x finally?

    Let me know what you think.

    Regards,

    Michael

Hi Michael,

There are some significant and very nice new features waiting to be released in an upcoming 1.15.0 release, including Pristines on Demand. IIRC, I think 1.15.x would be the new LTS line and would obsolete the previous ones. When will that be? It really depends on someone stepping up to manage a release. I have been using a recent development version, including using this feature, for some time now, in order to test it, and I haven't encountered any issues.

I guess [2] is an inconsistency with the site, since 1.10.x doesn't have more updates planned and 1.10.8 was the final release in that line. The inconsistency likely exists because we used to support two LTS lines in a staggered manner. That became too burdensome to maintain and 1.10.x went quite beyond its planned 4 years of support. I guess that at the very least the wording should change to reflect that, or maybe 1.10.8 links need to be taken down entirely. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll take a look when I get to a computer.

Thanks, Nathan. Looking forward to clearer information for downstream users.

Michael
