Announcement Mail fpr 2.2.36 (LTS) missing
Just noted that there was no announcement for 2.2.36
even with holidays, it would probably be good to have an announcement there,
maybe a short one?

2.2.35 was similarly not announced. I guess the packagers of the LTS version
see the tags and note the upload and for everyone else the modern Version
2.3.x is what should be used and relevant so the announcements are done only
for 2.3.x

Best Regards,
Andre

From my perspective we should announce the LTS versions as well.
It is more consistent with other announcements and provides an opportunity
for people interested to see what work is done.

It also is a good example use for notifications by email and us being
in contact with our usage community.

Not all Free Software Initiatives maintain stable versions, we do
and it is of good value, so we should talk about it.

Best Regards,
Bernhard
