Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Replying to [comment:11 dd32]:
 > ok, Given 2.8.x is supposed to be supported until 3.0 is released(I
 think that was decided upon?), This ticket makes hardly any sense for
 major releases.

 This ticket is less about major releases than it is about minor ones that
 fix security issues.


 > Changing the colour of the update notice depending on how long the
 update has been out is an option..

 That changes nada. Some users have multiple nags on every admin page, and
 they still don't upgrade. We should force them to do so for their own
 sake.
