Hi,

The last couple of days several people have ask about LTS (long term
support) and SMW. I would like to invite people to share their
insights on this topic using this threat.

For starters we might want to clarify:

# What would LTS mean in connection with SMW ?
# Which implications would LTS have on future developments ?
# Why would SMW need/want to support a LTS infrastructure ? What would
be the benefit ?
# Who will do LTS for SMW and what infrastructure is needed to support
LTS (own branch etc.)
# Would LTS mean a freeze release or do features from a development
branch are back ported to a LTS?

In short their needs to be a benefit for developers and users because
someone has to do it, its needs a workflow ( branch infrastructure
etc.) and its needs participants that keep such LTS alive.

According to [1]:

# SMW 1.8 supports MW 1.17/1.18+
# SMW 1.9 is planned to support MW  1.19/1.20/1.21 / PHP 5.3 or greater
# SMW 1.10 is planned to support MW 1.20 (or 1.21 pending on the release date)
