That's a very good point.
It is (in a perfect world). In our current state I still don't think it makes sense to do it that way because it means that the earliest next Evergreen release would be 12.2 and I'm scared to commit to something I don't even know yet.
I think that a practical decision point could be a month or two after the initial release, when it can be seen that it is a good one or a problematic one to skip. Users that are careful about which version to install usually defer to that point (or later), so that if they also know which version is going to have an extended maintenance, the decision is easier. For both sides :-) I know it can not be decided in advance :-) What is bad is deciding some months before demise, because LTS users did not decide at release to install it, and thus loose a year of maintenance.
Loosing that rule a bit I could imagine it would be enough to announce it before the following openSUSE is released. So it would have been nice if we would have known it before 12.1 got released. This would be something I can agree with but it's too late now unfortunately.
12.1 is not a good one to choose, I think. Systemd is still green, and gnome... well, gnome its not a good stable point. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
