[Users] Lifecycle / upgradepath

[Sven Kieske]

Hi Community,

Currently, there is no single document describing supported
(which means: working ) upgrade scenarios.

I think the project has matured enough, to have such an supported
upgradepath, which should be considered in the development of new
releases.

As far as I know, currently it is supported to upgrade
from x.y.z to x.y.z+1 and from x.y.z to x.y+1.z
but not from x.y-1.z to x.y+1.z directly.

maybe this should be put together in a wiki page at least.

also it would be cool to know how long a single "release"
would be supported.

In this context I would define a release as a version
bump from x.y.z to x.y+1.z or to x+1.y.z
a bump in z would be a bugfix release.

The question is, how long will we get bugfix releases
for a given version?

What are your thoughts?
