The tags on 3-0-stable, 2-3-stable, 2-2-stable and 2-1-stable are
currently patched when there is a security release. This means the
latest tiny versions of these branches are the ones supported when
there is a security release. It is always recommended to stay up-to-
date to the latest tiny version in your minor release.

It is likely that when 3.1 is released, we will drop support to 2.2.x
and 2.1.x versions.
