in 18 years Debian released 6 "stable", an avarage of 3 years between a stable and the next one, i think is already longer than others call "LTS" a distro. 3 years between stables is already (imho, maybe) too much, is already an overload of work for maintainers to backport patches and other on software often classified "old" if not "obsolete" too. The major benefit of opensource software is the "darwin effect", good software evolve quickly, bad software die, force a maintainer to work on a software for 2 years more than usual may mean force a unusefull work, *imho* 3 years are already too much for a lot of enviroments (like development) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-security-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
