Once the b-series (18.04 development start we would have 4 active series building on KCI. Xenial, Zesty, Artful and 'b-series'.
Since we already arguably generate too many builds at present, then I propose that we retire builds for both Xenial and Zesty. Rational for those: Xenial - There is little that we are likely to backport to Xenial any more with the help of KCI, and what individual packages we might can be test built on a case by case basis. We already have some breakages with Xenial builds due to difficult to backport dependencies, which is only going to get worse with time. It would be a better use of time and resources to concentrate on the upcoming next LTS. Zesty - Similar to Xenial, there is little now that we would with to backport for Zesty. We cannot/should not backport 18.04 versions in the backports ppa, as this would break Zesty -> Artful upgrades via the release upgrader when a user had the backports ppa packages installed. Zesty also only has 3 months worth of life once Artful is released, so it will be going away soon anyway. Thoughts/opinions please?
