-Distributions: For example, suppose an aggregate distribution of software
-provides an `installpkg` command for installing packages. Then the action
-`installpkg ion3` (resp. `installpkg ion`) should provide the latest release
-of Ion3 (resp. the latest stable release) 28 days from release date at the
-latest, or prominently notify the user that the provided version is (likely
-to be) obsolete and unsupported. The latest release being provided by
-default, or prominently appearing in a listing, constitutes prominent
-marking of earlier releases as obsolete. Specific versions (including
-modified versions) may be provided if the user explicitly requests for
-those, within the constraints set above.
-
-The intent of these terms is to curb the power that "distributions", as
-the primary sources of software for many users, have in defining what
-is perceived as Ion. By providing significantly modified versions and
-out-dated development snapshots without prominently mentioning this fact,
-they do not present the work in a light that the author can agree with,
-and create a burden of dealing with (new) users seeking for support for
-such versions.
