[geos-devel] PSC Vote: RFC 11 Geos Versioning and EOL Policy

[Regina Obe]

Here is my formal request to vote on:

https://libgeos.org/development/rfcs/rfc11/

To accompany that change we will 

1) Put a link on https://libgeos.org/usage/download/  to that policy.
2) Put in a Final Release Date column on the download page (maybe
color-coded, though not sure how to color code in markdown so maybe we'll
skip that)
Red - past EOL
Yellow - EOL eminent
Not sure it's worth to color code newer

3) For releases not reached EOL yet, set the expected EOL to 3-4 years from
the .0 release.

Not sure what to do with 3.6 and 3.7, both are passed 4 years

3.6.0 was released 2016-10-25 (more than 5 years ago) (Dan mentioned this is
still in Ubuntu LTS 18, which will be eol'd in April 2023), do we wait or
just EOL it now.

3.7.0 was released 2018-09-10  -- about 4 years ago, so I would consider
this on the potential chopping block given the above proposed policy.


Thanks,
Regina
