Also some answers on FAQ here:

Is mr4.5.1 LTS (long time supported) release?

> The current release line mr4.5.x is going to be the next NGCP LTS and
> will officially be announced as LTS when mr4.5.2 is released. The
> only changes from the current mr4.5.1 to the next official mr4.5.2
> LTS are an upgrade script for direct mr3.8.x to mr4.5.x upgrade, and
> potential bug fixes. Otherwise the feature set, functionality and API
> is fixed and won’t change anymore.

Is it possible to upgrade directly from mr3.8* LTS to mr4.5.1 LTS release?

> We will implement such upgrade step for mr4.5.2+.
> While currently is it possible to update on mr4.5.1 from mr4.4.* only.

Is it possible to upgrade directly from 2.8 LTS to mr4.5.1 LTS release?

> No, it is not possible. It is not allowed to jump over LTS releases.
> Upgrade from 2.8 LTS must be performed on the latest build of release
> mr3.8 LTS first.

Thanks to community for feedback and Sipwise team for a nice work!
