We did not decide yet that we will stop to support 5.3 right after the
5.4 release. And for one, I think we should continue to suport it
(strict maintenance mode) for a year or two. We can't simply say "heh
look, it is dead" as we got no plan until now. Things are easier for
5.4 and later as we have now a clear release life cycle (as defined in
the RFC).
