Is 2.5.x still being supported?

Hi,

I see someone send a pull request to 2.5.x branch[1].
My question is that is 2.5.x branch still being supported?
IMO, we should consider announce the end of life in the near future,
say 1 year, and only support critical bug fix or security fix, while
that we should provide a migration guide for user to upgrade from
2.5.x to 2.6.x or 2.7.x.

What do you think?

There is another question, how to deal with the issuse related to the 2.5.x version, for example

2.6.x is almost completely compatible with 2.5.x, so it would be a smooth upgrading for 2.5.x users.

Hi,

Given the EOL for 2.5.x has been discussed 10 months ago[1].
I am +1 on shorten the period.
One question, is 2.6.x completely compatible to 2.5.x?

In fact, 2.5.x has been out of the community’s daily maintenance for a while. And I think few users are still staying on this branch, this can be told from the PRs and issues reported as really few issues were related to 2.5.x in the past 5-6 months. 

I think we should announce EOL plan ASAP and 3 months official buffer period would be enough.

Hi,

I see someone send a pull request to 2.5.x branch[1].
My question is that is 2.5.x branch still being supported?
IMO, we should consider announce the end of life in the near future,
say 1 year, and only support critical bug fix or security fix, while
that we should provide a migration guide for user to upgrade from
2.5.x to 2.6.x or 2.7.x.

What do you think?
