<PRE>Le vendredi 8 juin 2012 13:31:30, Angelo Naselli a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> &gt; If there is security issue then you have to fix it on cauldron too
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; (usually with new version, so you can backport it to stable version). At
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; least before release. And after backports are closed you can upgrade to
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; latest stable version (for example mga3) and get patched version this
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; way. I don't see the problem here.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Well I can't see how we can close a bp since we say we give 9 months of
</I>&gt;<i> supporting version. If we support bp, we also need to provides fixing at
</I>&gt;<i> least. But i got your point, it's a kind o release freeze for bp for the
</I>&gt;<i> mga n-2.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>
We support each release 18 month at least (that is, unless we manage to do 
more in the future), so his proposal means stopping backports support too 
early.
