The LTS releases happen as critical bug fixes are fixed or every few months 
otherwise. We're going to try to introduce more regularity with a new QA 
process that is in the early planning stages. 

As for when new LTS branches are chosen, that's less predictable. In the past 
we tried to do them roughly once a year, but we made so many fundamental 
architectural changes between 1.10 and 2.2 that we deliberately locked 1.9 as 
the LTS until 2.3. I don't expect that we'll need to do that again, so there 
should be a more regular cadence between LTSs.
