For the endgame issue, please include the question of how old releases
will be managed. I'm particularly concerned about security fixes, where
we currently try to have at least a preliminary patch ready at the time
a security flaw is announced.
Sounds fine. Are you talking about the theoretical case when all
releases under discussion are open development (or at least open
source), or today's case where only SMI has a collection of previous
releases?
The case were all releases are open source and there are no longer any
SMI only previous releases is by my rough calculation a minimum of 12
years away but more likely 15 years.
