V8 follows the Chromium release schedule. The support horizon for Chromium is
6-
very different from the support horizon that Node.js needs to provide to its
7-
users. As a result Node.js needs to support a version of V8 for quite a bit
8-
longer than what upstream needs to support. Since V8 doesn't have an LTS
9-
supported branch, there is no official process around how the V8 branches in
10-
Node.js are maintained.

This document attempts to document the current processes and proposes a workflow
13-
for maintaining the V8 branches in Node.js LTS and Current releases and how the
14-
Node.js and V8 teams at Google can help.
