The more accurate guidance is to keep the latest release from each branch that is being actively maintained. At this point, that means 2.3 and 3.0 for Hive. I'd propose that we keep those versions of storage-api that match those versions of Hive. That means we should keep 2.4 and 2.6 for storage api.
