Agree with the ideal world scenario :-)
If we look at it from the other side: Why is it that people want to stay on
older releases?
From personal experience I know that in the beginning the 4.4 release wasn’t
that stable. I upgraded production systems from 4.3.0 to 4.4.2 and it was
painful. Th

Sebastien,
So wouldn't it be nice to make clear which release is still supported
and which release is not?

Bug fixing in older releases is actually a lot of work. For security related
issues we could maybe do it.
Personally, I prefer to have a fast release cycle and smooth (tested) upgrade
paths over 2-year LTS release cycle. It's more agile. As a bonus, people get
the new features.

This would mean "someone" or "we" make a commitment to add bug fixes

Hi everyone,
Thanks for a great discussion.
I understand it may be difficult to support releases for several years with
CloudStack’s fast paced development, and the statistics Leo shared are
certainly not what I was aiming for.
I think it will be difficult to gather agreement in this stage and
Hey hey,
Ooh, interesting topic. I'm going to top-post because I want to focus on the
big picture!
* Apache HTTPD provides 8+ years of support for old releases.
* Tomcat provides 6+ years of support for N-2 release.
* Ant provides 12+ years of backward compatiblity, so far.

ChunFeng,
I think as long as there is a change to the current efforts it will improve the
stability of the product. At th

If this was company owned product, it would be very easy to set goals, and
I'm not really in favor of LTS support, it's a good idea, but not sure it

Top posting here as my remarks are mainly on the original topic.
I’m not in favor of supporting LTS releases as a community. The reasoning here
is that there is a huge chance that we will fragment the community in people
that just want to work on the latest and greatest and some other folks who
Rohit, I consider you my friend and colleague, I could reply on
everything said but do not want to escalate on all the details. The

Daan,
I like 4.4 better than 4.3 for my use case and despite the bugs I hit it does
its job.
If I were to deploy today it would still be with 4.4. Hope this makes you feel
better. :-)

That is worrying, Rohit. As the rest of your mail is already a vote of
distrust, this part says we should not release 4.4.2 as it contains
regressions. This

Hi,
During CCCEU14 conference and over emails, I spoke with many CloudStack users
and I think most of us would like to have and use LTS releases. I propose that;
- We encourage a habit to backport a bugfix to all qualifying branches whether
or not those branches are LTS
