To me, the second sentence contradicts the first one: we maintain one
major version at a time, except when we maintain two... :-) How about
this:

Active maintenance of Plone happens for one major version of Plone at
a time.  The exception is that once a new major version is released,
the old major version is maintained until the first minor version of
the new major version is released.

Or:

Active maintenance of Plone happens for one major version of Plone at
a time.  When a new major verson of Plone is released, this new
version will be the actively maintained version.  However, there is a
period of overlap: until the first minor version of the new major
version is released, the old major version is also maintained.
