[QGIS-Developer] Qgis 3.34.4 LTR ?

[Nick Bearman]

Hi Régis, Luca, list,

I think some of the confusion might be over the term of "Release". I 
read this as release of the binaries, i.e. something we can download and 
install from the QGIS website as a user. From what you said Luca, it 
seems you view "Release" as release of the source code before packaging 
into binaries. Do I understand this correctly?

I've always found the Road Map page slightly confusing. Is there space 
on the website for a "simpler" explanation of this process somewhere? 
Yes, I am happy to have a go at writing a first draft!

Also - I think the release process is complicated by OSGeo4W Network 
installer. I used this to install both LTR and current versions of QGIS 
yesterday (26th Feb) and got 3.36.0 (branded as Release Candidate) and 
3.34.3 (branded at LTR) which I think is a bit ahead of the game.

I think Kurt's post on LinkedIn 
(https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7167793362815717376/) 
may have also made some people this 3.36 is available when it is not.

Hope this is useful!

Best wishes,
Nick.
