Hi,

The main concern about discontinuing the 2.1 series is the time.

When back-porting one or more plugins, a considerable amount of work must be done 
because :
- Plugins structure may have changed
- APIs may have been deprecated.
- APIs may have been added that remove unnecessary developement.
- Testing a release is a long cycle : heavy use, correction, packaging, installation 
on a clean distribution. It takes about 5 days to spot 95% of the bugs not found in 
the development environment, because runtime is slightly different.

So as you see, it is just a matter of time.

Laurent.
