Andrei,
To best of my knowledge, both 4.4.x and 4.5.x are being worked on
actively. As a community, we need to get better on QA of each release -
this is something we are planning to cover this year with distributed QA
model, this was not widely discussed yet but something we need to tackle.
4.5 rc2 got stalled and we need to restart. We had a 4 month release
cycle, but we can really stick to it hard - as its community driven. May
will have to revise it down to 6 months or so.
Regards
ilya

Hello guys,
Looking at the dev and user lists it is becoming less certain if version 4.5.x
is ever coming out. It seems like a few months have passed since the not so
fortunate release of 4.5.0 and I can't find a release schedule for the 4.5.1,
which seems to have stopped at rc2 stage and haven't progressed further to a
release stage.
Are we likely to see any progress with the 4.5.x branch or is the community
switching towards the 4.6.x branch without releasing the 4.5.x?
I am a bit unclear as there are no release dates, schedules or dead lines that
the community should work with. Possibly as a result of this, the ACS releases
are not being released on time or fast enough.
Does it make sense to introduce release schedules for ACS that the dev
community should stick to? Similar to what is being done in many other
projects, like Ubuntu, etc. Or would this break the ACS project releases even
more?
