Dang, I was kind of in the neighborhood.  At a URL I can no longer dig up, I saw that 3.7S was to be supported for a very, very long time, so I thought I'd found a good candidate there.  Right now CCO is giving me an error on pretty much everything, so I can't get a better look at the list, but perhaps I can refine my question anyhow…

Since this is a single-RP router (no "issu" available, I believe) and we're not asking for too much from it, I'd like to avoid service interruptions just to follow a short-lived release.
