[collections] EOL 3.x?
Hi All:
Should we formally announce that the 3.x line is EOL and encourage
users to migrate to 4.x?

IMO, such information belong on that page[1]:
https://commons.apache.org/index.html
[1] There we should probably remove the link to the article meant to
introduce "Commons" components...

Hi Gary,
No objections from me. I can't recall if we did that for other components.
We could also, I think, have a document for Commons to reference when
releasing a major version update of a component. In that document we could
explain we are a team of volunteers, that if 4.x is out, users can only
expect security updates to 3.x if there are volunteers with time to work on
the fixes, etc. So for future questions of this type, one could just point
to this doc. WDYT?
