I started this page:

It splits the life cycle into three phases (dev, LTS and sunset). Sunset
would be critical (think CERT) security fixes only. I on purpose made
Sunset one year for our existing long term releases, since we had not
communicated any such intent earlier. For new releases (v3.4 etc.) I'm
proposing a more aggressive 6 months Sunset period. This gives users
about 1.5 years to migrate off a release. I know we are more aggressive
on releases than e.g. various LTS OS releases, and this is obviously
only an initial suggestions (so please keep the comments / ideas flowing).
