Creation of new tracks for eProsima Vulcanexus

Hi there,

Hello,

Per Process for aliases, auto-connections and tracks 2, we need a 1-week voting/discussion period, so I’ll check back on the discussion and votes in a few days.

I have three questions before casting my vote.

  1. What’s your snap’s release cadence, how often is a new major version (potentially requiring a new track) released? is this documented somewhere by upstream?
  2. Is there some commitment from upstream on maintenance of old versions? e.g. is the “g” release still supported with security updates? will it continue to be supported now that humble and iron are out, and for how long?
  3. Are new versions backwards-incompatible? meaning, if I was running humble and try to install iron, will that just work, or do I need to migrate my data/configuration, or will things break horribly?

Thanks!
