So, I was suggested something that seems like a good idea: consider adding concept of Long-Term Support(ed versions/branches) similar to JDKs.
I wrote bit more on https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-future-ideas/wiki/JSTEP-13 (TL;DNR; some but not all versions could be considered LTS, kept open longer than intervening "short-term" minor versions; expands timespan of supported (oldest) version, gives users more predictability) but more importantly, opened a discussion here: https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-future-ideas/discussions/84 in case anyone wants to exchange ideas, comments, brainstorm.
