Right. Forgot about that. We have two options: branch yet again
jackrabbit, always use trunk only from now on.
As we're going towards a maintenance hell in terms or version I'm for
using only trunk for jackrabbit. So having only 2.11.x.
...in which case we probably should label it "stable".
Dunno whether we need separate versions; haven't done any Jackrabbit
work in a long time. Maybe Angela has an opinion?

the topic is quite intricate, specially for Oak. If I restrict the
discussion to JR and by looking at the last updates from our downloads
page I can see:
- OCM 2.0.0 (10-July-2012). Do we still maintain this project? There
were a recent email about it.
- Jackrabbit 2.2.13 (04-October-2012)
- Jackrabbit 2.4 (Oct 24, 2013)
- Jackrabbit 2.6.5 (December 2nd, 2013)
- Jackrabbit 2.8 (June 4th, 2015)
- Jackrabbit 2.10.1 (May 21st, 2015)
IMO we should drop the support for 2.2 and 2.4 at least. Ideally 2.6 as
well.
thoughts?
+1 on eol-ling as many as possible. Do we need to make "final" releases
of those?
Best regard, Julian
