Since we have compat module available (2.4.0), we might want to release it too, but on the other hand, if we don't have active jenkins tests running on a regular basis for old patch release, it might be difficult for us to know how stable it really is. So, perhaps dropping binary release might be a better option for subsequent minor release (not patch) of Phoenix.
