This is an excellent question. I can only say that other projects at Apache do this - on example is Apache Tomcat. Tomcat currently supports three releases:
- 5.5.x which is EOL December of this year. [1] - 6.0.x - 7.0.x Since Tomcat 5.5.x is a dependency of AOO 3.4.x we need to be aware of this in our dependency discussion.
