Hi,

As an occasional reminder, the Evergreen development community maintains a
schedule for how long Evergreen versions get general bugfixes and security
updates. This schedule is maintained on the wiki here:

https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=dev:release_process:schedule

As a general rule, after a dot-zero release comes out, the developers
commit to 12 months of general bug-fixing followed by a further 3 months of
security bugfixes.

The two versions that are currently supported are 3.4.x and 3.5.x.

3.4.x will reach the end of its general bug-fix life in October and reach
the end of security support in January. 3.5.x, on the other hand, will hit
those milestones in July of 2021 and October of 2021 respectively.

Note that whoever maintains your Evergreen system may of course choose to
support versions for longer than the community support period and may
backport bugfixes. However, as a general rule, it's a good idea to not get
too far behind with respect to the versions that are under community
support.

Regards,

Galen
