Hello,
I'm a product manager doing some research and wondering if there is a policy
or guideline that the FreeBDS board of directors/Community uses to gauge
release lifecycles.  For example, how long will "community" energy be spent
to support older previous releases, over new.  Basically how long will a
prior version be "supported".  While this is a clear concept in commercial
software firms, don't yet understand how this works with FreeBSD and
community maintained OS.   What I'm trying to ultimately decide is how long
we need to provide support for prior FreeBSD releases.
Thanks for your consideration, Best regards,

Eric Harrison
