Looking forward, I don't think that anybody has even proposed anything that would require a major release yet.
That should mean that you have quite a bit of lifetime ahead on the 3.x family. Moreover, it is a cinch to bet that even when a 4.0 is released, it is unlikely to have enough killer features to drive wholesale adoption right away. That means that there will be a 3.x bug-fix branch for quite a while even after 4.x versions come out. ZK has the least operations overhead of any software I have ever deployed in to a system. The worst problem is that you have to document procedures because you don't have to touch ZK often enough to remember them accurately.
