Hello everyone, The Fineract git repo used to have many git branches. This was a little bit confusing, and allowed people to raise pull requests against other branches than develop.
We have therefore decided to "close" all open branches and make them simple git tags (which still allow one to easily see "how the code was" e.g. back in 1.3.0 and earlier). This better reflects the reality that the community really only works on the develop branch in git. Maintaining "Long Term Support" (AKA "LTS") by "back-porting" fixes can be one of many ways e.g. for System Integrators to offer additional value, and is common in some open source communities. Of course, any committer is welcome to offer their time to maintain past releases and "backport" select fixes and step up as release managers e.g. for 1.4.x, but as far as I know, the currently active committers focus on a linear release (so a 1.5.0 next), only. More background discussion about this can be found in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-1154. Best, M. _______________________ Michael Vorburger http://www.vorburger.ch
