Hi,

This patch was only intended to put in 4.5 and master and later it was back 
ported to 4.3.
If you can help me adding the upgrade path from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3, I’ll put the PR 
for back porting to 4.4.3

Thanks,
Harikrishna

Hi Rajani,

I've already started a thread on user/dev ML around LTS releases, we should 
have discussion there.

I dont like the idea of release manager cherry-picking/backporting the fixes to 
the release branches.

As a community we are supporting past two releases. ie) at this point we have 
to support 4.3 and 4.4
As a developer/contributor, if I feel a bug is relevant for 4.3 I should be 
committing it to all the 4.3+ releases. Otherwise it would be a nightmare for 
people trying to upgrade later.
If and when a release is required, we should release from that branch.

+1 that's the ideal case and everyone should do it but since I had to backport 
more than 90 fixes from 4.4/4.5/master to 4.3 many of us were clearly not doing 
that.

In many opensource projects such as Linux, it's common to see different people 
maintaining a certain branch or major release. I want to do the same for 4.3 
until a stable 4.5.x or 4.6.x is out that is fairly tested and used in the 
wild. Everyone is welcome to do it for any branches they do.

Regards.

ok, so that would go in 442to443?

Yes, but do you plan to do a 4.4.3? The whole debate around maintaining 4.3 vs 
4.4 comes down to stakeholder's interests, you've shared that you may not want 
to put a lot of efforts on 4.4 branch since 4.5.0 is around but if I'm mistaken 
and since you're the release manager you should backport changes applicable on 
4.4 and do a 4.4.3 release. That would be great for 4.4.x users.

Before the patch could be ported, Hari will need to use an empty upgrade path 
from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 and change versions in pom files etc. Hari let me know if 
you can do that in your backport or if Daan or I need to add that for you. 
Thanks.
