I can understand that, but if you want to take an informed decision, I wouldn't
consider the
GDAL 1.11 series as being still supported by the GDAL project (unless someone
particularly
well hidden still supports it). 1.11.0 was released more than 3 years ago, and
I was kind
enough to release a 1.11.5 last July, but given the lack of customer interest
for it, I don't
consider doing new point releases for it. Same for 2.0.X
I'm not even sure there will be new point releases in the 2.1 series, after
2.1.4 which is going
to be released at the same time as 2.2.1 (*), likely beginning of next week.
(*) ah forgot to mention, the RC is already there:
