Re: [DISCUSS] Updating the support and release policy

[Greg Mann]

I'm fine with keeping old branches around and stating in our docs/READMEs
that the branches are unsupported. After looking at a few other open source
projects, it seems that this practice is not uncommon.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Mesos 1.4.3 (rc1)

[Alex Rukletsov]

This will be the last official 1.4.x release. Even though we agreed to keep
the branch and occasionally back port fixes to it post last release, maybe
it makes sense to include all pending patches into 1.4.3? I see for example
Gilbert added the fix for MESOS-9532 [1]. We were also considering back
porting other test fixes [2] to 1.4.x branch.
