What is the future of oVirt with RHV 4.4 being the last RHV release? - see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/rhev

With the release of RHV 4.4 Red Hat continues to invest in and support customers with a production-ready virtualization portfolio. The latest addition to this portfolio is OpenShift with OpenShift Virtualization, which provides continuity and roadmap delivery for the KVM-based virtualization stack currently managed by RHV. Moving forward the RHV management feature set will be converged with OpenShift and OpenShift Virtualization providing customers with requirements for containers and VMs a migration path and a common platform for deploying and managing both.

Similar question has been asked in "Is there a plan for ovirt 4.5 and furture versions?"[1] thread.

As a product, Red Hat Virtualization has a different lifecycle than oVirt which is a community project.

What will be the future of oVirt project depends on how the community will be shaping it. You're welcome to contribute shaping this future!

About the versioning, the beginning of oVirt 4.4 we shifted towards a continuous “zstream” improvement in 4.4.z rather than a big bang version as we used to do.
