Saying LTS I mean Long Term Support as ubuntu people do.

I know there's SEL but I'm asking for the open Suse. I'm configuring a
new webserver right now. And I'm seriosly thinking about waiting for
the next ubuntu LTS. I always ran the machines longer than two years.
Often the contract duration for the dedicated hardware is two years
yet. And although upgrading worked so far for me there were always
small changes which you couldn't see in advance, like postfix
complaining about file permissions.

I really enjoy OpenSuse but a life cycle of two years is - except for
desktops - to short. Not every release has to be supported long term
but what about every third? Couldn't the life cycle be 4.5 years?

Am I the only one thinking like this?

That's the reason to exist for SLES, sorry
