I agree. And I have no intent to reduce their lifetime. My question was essentially how these versions are consumed and if a tag was necessary at all for old versions. Your mention of docker is sufficient to show that there's at least one use case so we don't change anything. And to be honest, old LTS releases do not involve much work. That's just a handful of hours per year, that's pretty much acceptable. It's just that each time one has to work on them it's a pain to collect all the info and I wanted to be certain this effort is not wasted. Regards, Willy
