 It's *highly recommended to use the latest supported PHP version* for this project.
 
+We're committed to providing long-term support (LTS) options and to provide a
+smooth upgrade path. If you're using an older PHP version, you may use the
+[`2.x` branch](https://github.com/reactphp/async/tree/2.x) which provides a
+compatible API but does not take advantage of newer language features. You may
