Thanks, Mark 
2.477 looks like the ideal candidate to me

Today is the day that we should choose the next LTS baseline.  That LTS

I recommend Jenkins 2.477 <https://www.jenkins.io/changelog/2.477/> as the 
LTS baseline for 30 Oct 2024.

Basil recommends either 2.476 <https://www.jenkins.io/changelog/2.476/> or 
2.477 <https://www.jenkins.io/changelog/2.477/> as the LTS baseline in his 
Spring 
Security 6.x summary message 
<https://groups.google.com/g/jenkinsci-dev/c/gsXAqOQQEPc/m/i_UZjeITAQAJ>.  
I prefer 2.477 because it avoids a backport of one fix and includes several 
UI improvements.  I've seen no issues in my use of Jenkins 2.477.


What about 2.479? 2.478 only had minor changes (so minor that the changelog 
is empty), and 2.479 has only security fixes that need backporting anyway.


I think that is an excellent suggestion.  Wish I'd thought of that myself.  
Tim Jacomb, are you OK if the LTS baseline is 2.479 instead of 2.477?

Since I'm about to start the 30 Oct 2024 LTS release checklist, the timing 
for this question is ideal.   I'll wait until tomorrow before starting the 
release checklist in hopes that 2.479 is agreed as the LTS baseline rather 
than 2.477.
