+ AUTHOR: rhurlin@gwdg.de
+
+ GIS 3.4 LTR, the first long-term release (LTR) of QGIS 3, has landed
+ in the FreeBSD ports tree. It will also replace the previous 2.18 LTR
+ in the QGIS package repositories in February 2019 [1].
+
+ Beside, the latest QT4 version 4.8.7 has been EOL since December 2015
+ and its expiration date on FreeBSD is set to March, 15th 2019.
+ Because QGIS 2 is based on QT4 and Python2, it was decided to not create
+ a legacy port for QGIS 2, after graphics/qgis changed to QGIS 3.
+
+ For users moving over from the 2.18 LTR there is a huge list of new
+ features and impactful changes in this new 3.4 LTR version. Most notably
+ 3.x plugins are incompatible with 2.x plugins, so please review your
+ plugin usage carefully. Before moving over, if you have not already
+ done so, take a look at the changelogs from versions 3.0, 3.2, and
+ 3.4 [2][3][4] to understand the full scope of changes in the 3.x release.
