Suggestion: add "End of life (no more maintenance for this version)? Upgrade"

• Gormo 2y ago
  Why? If the implemented featureset meets your needs, and there are no unresolved bugs or security vulnerabilities relevant to your use cases, what further "maintenance" do you need?

    When a critical security patch comes out, you don't want to have to to do a major version upgrade to get it.

    Because when the maintainers have stopped patching that version against all known security vulnerabilities, that doesn't stop the bad guys from looking for more vulnerabilities. When they find one, it will get exploited. So you either wake up to an email from Have I Been Pwned to say all your customer data has been exfiltrated [0], or (if you're lucky) you have a mad scramble to do that update before they get you. [0] Probably including those passwords you didn't hash, and those credit card numbers you shouldn't be storing in the first place because, what the heck, it meets your needs.
