Hi,
this is to continue the slightly offtopic discussion that emerged on
https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/2785
> > > You can still keep up the latest version in any release series
that you consider "currently active". Accumulo has the latest 1.10.x and
2.1.x right now. Hadoop has the latest 3.3.x, 3.2.x, and 2.10.x.
ZooKeeper has 3.5.x, 3.6.x, 3.7.x, and 3.8.x (they might have a few
extra that they need to remove, as per that INFRA policy, though). The
Thrift PMC could make a similar decision to consider certain versions as
"currently active", even if they are only active for critical fixes.

> Maybe I wasn't clear enough. What I was trying to say is that you
could have more than one release series considered "currently active"
and leave up the most recent of each series. That would still be
compatible with INFRA release distribution policy.
I understood that. But that's the current policy anyways: We only have
one active version. Of course PMC can change it, but then PMC should
also come up with more people to actually do these releases. Because I
won't.
Have fun,
