porting fixes to v 3.2.X

2015-06-19 Thread Marc-André Chartrand
Can bug fixes from version 4.0 be ported to v 3.2.X ?   and also, when is
the next 3.2.X version coming out ?

The fix I'm looking at in particular is :

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-294

Which is only fixed in 4.0 apparently.

Currently, there are no plans to release another 3.x version.

Imho, a 3.2.2 release would only make sense if we really fix a
considerable amount of known bugs present in the 3.2.1 release, but this
would mean a lot of work.

If a *big corp* would sponsor a few working days, I could imagine that a
new release is feasible, otherwise try switching to collections 4 which
has fixed all known bugs in the 3.x branch.

btw. collections 3 and 4 can be used at the same time as they use
different package names.

Thanks.   I was wondering why the package names changed. I guess you just gave 
1 reason.
