Introducing our Long Term Support plan

@mdo July 24, 2019

Today we’re formally announcing our Long Term Support plan, a documented approach aimed at strengthening the stability and frequency of releases. As part of this initiative, each major version of Bootstrap will receive at least six months of support after it is retired, followed by six months of critical bug fixes and security updates.

Starting today, Bootstrap 3 will move to end of life, and will no longer receive critical security updates.

Bootstrap 4 will move to Long Term Support after we release v4.4 and will no longer receive new features from then on. It will continue to receive bug fixes, security updates, and documentation updates.

Bootstrap 5 is under active development. You can follow our progress on GitHub.

A special thanks to @XhmikosR for his tireless work in pushing us forward.
