By chance I happened to notice in the release notes
Release 7.3
Release date: 2002-11-27
Man, it feels like a long time since that came out...
There has been some discussion of making a project policy of dropping
support for old releases after five years. Should we consider formally
instituting that?
I see that there are two or three minor bug fixes in the REL7_3_STABLE
branch since 7.3.20. Rather than just leaving those to rot, maybe the
actual policy should be "only one more update after 8.3 comes out".
Comments, opinions?
