3.3.x has only been available since 2010-01-27.

Dropping support for mission critical software after only providing 4
months to do a major upgrade is bullshit.

Dropping support without even mentioning it on the website is similarly
poor.

Compare Ubuntu's 5 years of support for LTS releases on servers.

It should be sufficiently implied that we support the software we provide.
And the nearly 3 years since the last 3.2 release is not the relevant
time period.  The 4 months since it was released is.
