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.
You're missing something like 2000 bug fixes / updates including security
fixes, urgent and high severity fixes and lot of new features (that you may
or may not need, but still...)
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"
