Re: Do we still support the '"GlusterFS 3.3" RPC client?

3.13.0, the last 3.x.0 release, was released on 2017-12-01.

Ubuntu supports LTS releases for 7 years, Red Hat, 10 years.

I would assume that storage is one of those things that should be expected to work over the life of an enterprise software release cycle which would imply 7-10 years or somewhere between 2024 and 2027, imho.

Or can we remove this code?

In my opinion this should stay for at least another year! Especially because we still have products and user deployment which use 3.x version in them. While we say from community that we don't 'support' any old version, giving them option (or more time) to shift their clients to higher version after an upgrade is crucial for the project.

Also, unlike many other code we removed (For example, RDMA / Tiering etc), this is not adding any complexity or dependency issues to the codebase.

I am not in favour of removing the old xdr format codebase yet. Happy to hear what others think.
