Hi Guys, If we don't release R20 it means that we will at best release R21 at the end of 2021, again a lot of years between 2018 and 2021. I think we should release as much as possible, like the tendency is now and we did before. Jacques Le 22/12/2020 à 08:52, Devanshu Vyas a écrit : A big

+1 for the initial proposal with an additional idea: maybe better skip r20 and make a r21 right at the beginning of the year with the chance to release also in 21. This would allow us to catch up and have a more up-to-date release cycle. It seems a bit outdated to read that r18 is released

Hi Deepak, The reason I propose that is because it's more and more difficult to backport to R17, when for R18 it's still OK. Also 3 years seems good enough for me. Of course if people think 5 years would be better then the backporting question should be discussed... We could revise that
