hello Chris, apologies for barging in on the developers list but i didn't want to miss the opportunity for registering my enthusiastic approval for such an effort. this for sure is a valuable tool for people like me who are asked to help plan for future releases of a product that depends on GeoServer.
two additional things you might want to consider: a. add dates (tentative ones or year quarters are fine) for releases beyond the next immediate one. b. give an idea about the end-of-life period/date of earlier versions. this would help planning for conversion between different versions of the GeoTools and other libraries for oragnizations that use the same versions as those in GeoServer.
