hi, eleven days ago I disabled testing Debian buster on tests.r-b.o/debian and noone really complained nor noticed.
Tomorrow I intend to also disable testing Debian bullseye which
development ceased in August 2021.
The current stable Debian release is bookworm, released in June 2023
and basically not in any development anymore. bookworm is still
being tested by us and I think we should keep it that way until the next
release, trixie, has been published sometime in 2025 probably.
Keeping buster and bullseye (and previously also stretch) has costs,
both in diskspace on all machines were using, as well as as higher
loads for both maintenance jobs as well as the html creation jobs.
It *also* causes mental load on everyone looking at the results.
I also doubt that those olds results are useful today more than
"very rarely".
Like for stretch, the results will stay in the postgresql database,
and I will also backup the generated diffoscope diffs, though on
a different host.
Comments?

cheers,
Holger
