This whole thread brings back a point I've been trying to make for over
a year now.

If I understand well, one distro with 3 years and two with only one year?

may be.

There is an other road we could (may be) use.

That is work more on *upgrading cleanly* a distro.

That is when 11 is out, makes it possible to upgrade from 10.3 without fear. Possibly asking for change from kde3 to kde4 (or have them together for some time).

and 11 to 11.1, 11.1 to 11.2 (but not 11 to 11.2)

like this we could have end of life date for *products*, not for distro.

I don't know how mozilla do the daily update they do automatically, but I beg doing so is a way to make distro work easier, no need to wonder about mozilla now...

I have a hosted server with 10.2, and little way to use anything else (openSUSE). I would be much easier for me to use only one distro, but I fear the online update...

after all, changes like kde3->kde4 or kernel 2.4->2.4 are not that frequent
