Hi Clebert,

My concern was about the maintainability of the community for upgrading the stack for mainly critical issues, cve...but not for improvement.

I was thinking about the community support but not the companies support.

regards,

François

The term LTS implies support though. (Long Term *SUPPORT*). I would be
careful with that terminology.

there are a few companies offering support to ActiveMQ.


The terminology used here was more an overload to a stable branch, or
it was actually meant on the "support" side?

Hi Matt,

I think it's what I proposed: 5.18.x should be our LTS branch currently.

Hey JB-

+1 I agree, formalizing and communicating LTS is important to users.

However, I think we should have a *released* branch that we feel is solid to 
base LTS off of vs declaring a future unreleased branch as a LTS release.

Hi François,

We discussed LTS/EOA but without commitment yet.

The thing we agreed on is to maintain 3 branches active (so 6.0.x,
5.18.x, 5.17.x right now). The same as we do in Apache Karaf
basically. I would consider it a kind of informal LTS :)
If we need to have a concrete LTS plan, then 5.18.x would be LTS but not 6.0.x.

In terms of roadmap, we have basically:
- 6.1.x plan to include new JMS features support
- 6.x (6.2.x, 6.3.x, etc) will follow the same path with new JMS
features support
- 7.x will be a big milestone because we plan to remove Spring
(supporting new configuration format like activemq,xml, activemq,yaml,
activemq.json, etc), add new tools, etc

If there are no objections, I can start a formal vote for LTS policy
and if the vote passes I can update the website.

Regards
JB

Hi all,

Now that the current release is on 6.x, I am searching for LTS
informations about the 5.x version but I cannot find it on the website.

Is there some info about this topic?

regards,

François
