That has not bee decided yet.  The 3.0.x releases are in
maintenance mode (transitioned as soon as 3.2.0 was released).
The 3.0.x series will reach EOL on Jul 1, 2009.

I expect that 3.2.x will be moved to maintenance mode as soon
as 3.3.0 is released.

maintenance == "only critical bug fixes and security issues"

What we've not stated is how long it would be until v3.2.x
reaches EOL.  Based on past data, I expect 6 - 12 months, but
that is just a guess and not really up to me.

If I were packaging Samba, I would only focus on the latest
production release.
