We maintain the current released image. But when people provide easy to
integrate, clear and useful
bug fixes for older versions, we integrate them.
(this was done for 1.1.2, it has all fixes that where added for 1.2.2)
Of course it would be possible (and I would prefer it), if a group of 1.2 users
could take that
over (e.g. commercial users that are actually using 1.2)
The idea would not to actively develope it, but just make sure that all the
fixes are added that
make sense (bug fixes, mostly). *And* make that driven and coordingated by
actual users of
that version. This way we make sure that a release gets important fixes as long
as it is used.
We could have such a group for just every version released: It gets "handed
off" to the people
using the release. This group than of course, with time, gets smaller, and in
the end fades
away.
The most important effect of this would be to not burn people maintaining old
versions they
don't use themselves...
