Frankly, maintaining a 3yo+ version of a Web framework just to please
users of one distribution, even a widely (not wisely) adopted one, is
just too much time-consumming just for marketing purpose. We should
talk about RHEL/CentOS marketing strategy instead ;)

I'm all with the idea of Stefan of putting 1.0 branch maintenance into
the hands of the community. That's how it works in a lot of other oss
projects, and furthermore not that much can pretend offering official
3 years long term support as with Symfony.

Just my two cents
