But the very short version is
Leap releases will be aligned with SUSE Linux Enterprise versions
And as SUSE Linux Enterprise versions aren't announced years in advance, we won't be announcing Leap versions with any guarantee too far in advance
However, we should be able to share _PREDICTED_ schedules and such
If you want people to tour around the internet claming "long term support" (even if most of the software changes at random intervals of roughly 12-18 months), you need at least to come up with a minimum lifetime for the 42- series to have some credibility. "At least 3 years" was thrown around many times. So I guess we can assume 42.x will be supported "at least until November 2018". Maybe it would be possible to add an additional promise of support for 6 or 12 months after the release of Leap 43 or similar, guaranteeing people some form of reasonable timeframe to upgrade to 43. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
