Please note that nobody is obliged to keep track with the latest
maintenance release. If your present release is working for you why move?

Just be aware that 2.4 was the planned maintenance release series -
but
that is now being dropped and maintenance release switched to 2.5 when
that comes out.
If I understand correctly this was a change decided on based on a desire
for HSM features available in 2.5.
I believe 2.5 is also not as backwards compatible with as many versions
as 2.4. I get the feeling that 2.4 will be viable for a while yet even
after 2.5 is released, but that's just a guess.
Lustre releases in my opinion are kind of in a strange state right now.
