Basic questions about IdP 3.3.0

[Klingenstein, Nate]

If there were a bug, there would probably be a fix for 3.3.0 and a fix for 3.2.1,
but it depends on exactly what is patched and why.

The policy says no such thing.

My mistake was in assuming a previous release would be supported for some security for some duration after the release of a new version.  It is news to me because I had presumed these would be considered previous stable releases.  I guess they're not.

The current stable release is the most stable release we have of a product.

A previous stable release is any stable release prior to the current one that has not been moved to the "earlier/unsupported" category below.

Earlier releases should be assumed to be unsupported. We are willing to entertain questions, but in many cases no resolution will be possible without upgrading, and we do not commit to providing any security patches on top of such releases.
