<p class="MsoNormal">No, I'm just asking because 3.5.6 has been released on 2015-12-01. You haven't updated to 3.6 in 3.6 life cycle and now even 3.6 is gone to end of life adn we're already at 3rd maintenace release for 4.0.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So I'm just curious about why you didn't upgrade. If something blocked the upgrade on a test environment or an upgrade on a new version showed regressions or degraded performance or maybe just a matter of "don't change what works fine" <o:p></o:p></p>
