 Sorry to revisit the discussion on IRC, but in be2abf23 Thomas Petazzoni wrote:

    Linaro toolchains are released so frequently (every month) that it
    doesn't make much sense to support 3 consecutive versions. So, like we
    do for ARM big-endian, let's support only one version at a time.

 Are we in agreement that this has changed because it seems they now have stable
releases? Or let me put this differently: are we sure now that the 2015.02
version is really considered more stable than 2015.08, or is it just that
they're too lazy to update their website?

 Arnout
