Hi, well there is the release process, basically: every 6 months a new point release (3.5 now, 3.6 will be next) see: http://www.ovirt.org/Release_Process ovirt does "support" the last release before the actual release, but this rule somehow does already got broken: the current release is 3.4.4 the next release will be 3.5 (RC4 just released) but even with 3.5 not released there will be no updates for 3.3.z (3.3.5 being the last release) and there will be _only_ security updates for 3.4.z. There is no planned 3.4.5 release if no security issues will be found. IMHO the process is somewhat broken here, because the "support" for 3.3.z is already abandoned with 3.5 not being released yet (there where some delays in 3.5 release process, due to bugs). This might be due to the fast development cycle atm: 3.2 was GA at 14.02.2013 3.3 was GA at 12.09.2013 3.4 was GA at 27.03.2014 so as you can see 3.5. is already a bit delayed. you can find the 3.6 release plan (not yet feature complete) here: http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_3.6_Release_Management HTH Sven -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQGbBAEBAgAGBQJULpTkAAoJEAq0kGAWDrqlib4L91O++dZjuDHcC5GOEo5W1tQf lOuOFx9K7/8y8ytGeohAMyZL9X0s9JXNR4Kl0qfTscNWaO1QIYm4EGqlkfeFISf2 Th5sOpq2oahsuvcFKKn/yI5tFaHyiCoyXCYodSoTV0hBNnQdtHjJc+mbgaWHhzT/ unilx8jAK08VBXJy4ahlTKLa7V82etKKx4n0KkfWCLpwsNrHbr+jx/leBsf841T9 Zpij7W41P29JJB2spoYM8sTqxg2WPfCsgogbEvDXp5StJet7qU0WZ+3vsAoXfAGv ZnE/L6lVrcTjC9ikh5t3tszZXS5gErev3GCC0QA8arvOE9MRwLPGoK6pS0BcqKd4 PjsIcE0ddVR8JL7/uwbmz4WMyVqq/VXnIeedFBEy/KIMI2c4nKCFrKHyAxEg5p/X 3Uex2UsO7CvZUPL9SzPEPlDjfEsrfEhft9x08j9kO3/1HbsdeePatj2J5IvsyI47 wQuzTc4eHDFp5Az/HrF4i1421h65l4v+gweJJsjj =FRk0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
