freebsd stable - Jul 2004 - Anyone maintaining / care about 4.x anymore ?

Since I'm under the impression that 4.10 is/was meant to be 'end of
line',
is anyone looking at / dealing with bug reports for 4.x anymore?

I had a crash yesterday that had a nice clean core dump ... I did submit a 
problem report for it, but just curious as to whether its worth submitting 
for the 4.x line anymore ?

This isn't a "nobody has looked at it yet" email, since I know
everyone is
busy ... this is just a 'is it worth adding to GNaTs for 4.x related bugs 
anymore' email ... I'm not sure where -STABLE is sitting in ppls minds 
right now :(

Rumors of 4.x's death are greatly exagerated.  We plan to continue
supporting 4.x well into the future with security fixes, stability fixes,
and at least one additional release (which would imply additional
features, wot?).  The reality is that even if we did "end of life"
4.x, it
would remain in use for years to come, and we're hardly going to ignore
that :-).  If you look at the FreeBSD Release Engineering web page, you'll
see that 4.11 is on the impending release list, but doesn't yet have a
schedule assigned.  Right now we're largely focussing on getting 5.3 ready
to go out the door.
