   >  the most adopted versions are 0.9.x and 0.12.x, can we treat them as versions for today? Can I request a security-patched/bug-fix version for them?
   
   Releases are currently done about twice a year, patches only when its really, really necessary. Although we have released patch versions in the past, the usual policy is to maintain only the last one. 
   
   Since we also got a nice email from INFRA some time ago in that regard, we now also consequently remove any old versions from the ASF download servers, i.e. you can't even download them anymore that way. Only whats out there and available through 3rd party package managers and CDNs like maven, nuget or the like, and of course [right here from GitHub](https://github.com/apache/thrift/releases).
