It is common to integrate bug fixes in version develop, stable N, stable N-1, stable N-2 until N-4 (because it makes life easier for the developer to not go back too far), but any bug fix, submitted even in a very old version of Dolibarr (N-x), is integrated (if the PR respects the best practice of the "minimal change for bug fix" of course). So, some people uses to say that every Dolibarr version are LTS. But it is better to say that all versions of Dolibarr are "open to a LTS process". In reality, few developers submit fixes for versions beyond N-5, so very old versions are maintained but only when maintenance contributions are submitted, and because few contributions are submitted for very old versions, we must admit that there is only a "limited" community maintenance support for very very old versions. | It is common to integrate bug fixes in version develop, stable N, stable N-1, stable N-2 until N-4 (because it makes life easier for the developer to not go back too far), but any bug fix, submitted even in a very old version of Dolibarr (N-x), is integrated (if the PR respects the best practice of the "minimal change for bug fix" of course).

This is for example a screenshot done when last stable version was v19 | This is for example a screenshot done when last stable version was v19. It shows the latest recent maintenance fixes done in past versions. Going back more than 6 major versions of seniority, we see the last commit were done 5 month ago. | ||
