Joomla Version 3.2 in September 2013; the 3.5 release to March 2014 and more: Stakes and Opportunities.
It is henceforth official since the end of December 2012, we have learned from the Joomla Production Leadership Team (PLT) that, they will release version 3.2 in September 2013 and move the 3.5 release to March 2014. In addition, this pattern is expected to continue for the version 4.x releases.
Henceforth version 2.5 will be
the ''current long-term support'' (LTS) release for two years (March 2012 to March
2014) instead of 18 months.
Now learn more about the
revised release schedule via version 4.5.
it includes therefore:
- Version 2.5: March 2012 (LTS release)
- Version 3.0: September 2012
- Version 3.1: March 2013
- Version 3.2: September 2013
- Version 3.5: March 2014 (LTS release)
- Version 4.0: September 2014
- Version 4.1: March 2015
- Version 4.2: September 2015
- Version 4.5: March 2016 (LTS release)
In addition, we also
learn that: ‘’in discussions on list and at several Joomla events, the response
to this proposal was very positive. The PLT believes this change preserves the
advantages of the 6-month release cycle while giving LTS users a longer time
between major upgrades.’’
