EAP will be supported for many years so that requires us to support 5.0 for very long, and I guess that's why Gail would prefer to limit backports to the essential (minimum risk of unwanted changes) But even beyond product requirements, as an OSS project first I would be a disappointed user to see support dropped so quickly from a recent major release: I suspect abandoning 5.0 already would not be popular at all. Personally I would see us support 4.3 too but I understand we'd need more help for that to be feasible so that's life.. Hard to define what's the right threshold for sure, so it's up to those who do the job to decide.. But dropping 5.0 seems way premature to me to the point that I'd rather slow down other R&D. > > 2016-03-17 22:17 GMT+01:00 Sanne Grinovero <sa...@hibernate.org>: > > On 17 March 2016 at 17:40, Steve Ebersole <st...@hibernate.org> wrote: > >> To be honest, I think its best if we somehow notify you for issues fixed > >> that we think should be considered for inclusion on 5.0 branch and you can > >> decide.
