The problem that I see is that web applications in general (and WordPress specifically) change so quickly. It just seems like extended support (in excess of a year) ends up being more hassle than it's worth.

Hi,

What is the current status of the legacy 2.0 branch?
Seems that the WordPress team already deleted support for this branch
but i can't find information about when this happen and why?....
It is no longer supported because:

No one was downloading it.
We have made significant security improvements which could not easily be back ported while still maintaining it as a security bug fix release.

Peter, what about making a snapshot for the upcoming 3.0 and keeping it
as a legacy/stable version?

Thanks.
