Three? I count two plus an extra two months for the oldest when a new one comes out (that is, two for 75% of the time, three for the other 25%).
Yeah, I noticed the counting mistake. The period of 18 months drops one release halfway through time, which is very different from what some other distros do (namely, obsoleting an old version at, or shortly thereafter, the blink of a new release; but not phasing one out in the midst of time-nowhere.)
18 months means 2 months overlap, so that's IMO phasing out, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
