This table is incorrect: you should consider all 3.x series to be a
single 3.x release. When 3.1 was released we stopped all support for
3.0. When 3.2 was released we stopped support for 3.1. And when we
release 3.3 we will stop supporting 3.2. The 3.x releases try very
hard to maintain compatibility, so this should not be problematic.
