PS. Please don't start a discussion about 1.8 quality in this thread,
that's a separate issue. I just want to know what you think about
closing 1.4 support now. If you want to discuss 1.8 quality, start a
new thread. Thanks.
I don't think it's a separate issue at all.  I would like to see discussion of 
exactly which issues are preventing users from using Asterisk 1.8.  We're 
trying to shift focus to those issues and get them resolved as quickly and as 
efficiently as we can so that we can all move forward.

Let's see it from another angle: we today are mainly using 1.4 and 1.6.2 In the last month with faced those regressions, first still not solved:

https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=18539
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=18998

Do you think we're ready to switch to 1.8 if 1.4/1.6 still have such behavior?

As I told in previous answer, we started 1.4 in production very early and had lots of troubles, we don't want to face the same over activity with 1.8

Resources are limited.
This I understand
What is the best use of our time to help ensure the best future?  Where do we 
want to see the project in the next 6 months to a year?  A primary focus on 
further solidifying Asterisk 1.8 is what gets us there in my mind.

Agree
Asterisk 1.4 was released 4.5 years ago.  It mostly "just works", and I fully 
expect many to keep using it until they see a need to migrate.  This process has been 
likened to when the community moved from Asterisk 1.2 to 1.4.  Asterisk 1.8 has been much 
more stable out of the gate than 1.4, due to many things we have done over the years to 
increase quality, including:
[...]

Ok, so why not stay with asterisk 1.4 security *and* bug/regression fixes for few weeks/monthes till 1.8 reaches the level that the community accept to switch to 1.8
