Just a few ideas/notes, because people often ask me the dates of releases and other stuff regarding the cycle: I think we should add an article somewhere on haproxy.org, because it's difficult to know that if you didn't read the mailing list post talking about it. I know that we have the BRANCHES file in the git repository, but honestly it's not really visible from the website, and people using packages to install HAProxy won't probably never have this file on their system. Also there isn't a date for each major release on the website, only the date of the latest minor release, which is a problem to understand at which period of the cycle the version is. So we should probably add the date of the first release and the estimated end of life date, which help to chose between 2 versions. Regarding the current development version, an estimated release date could be great too, with the current phase of development. It will add more visibility on the development cycle. -- William Lallemand
