+<h3>Transition to LTS and Standard Releases</h3>
+
+<p>Subversion 1.0 through 1.10 were released at intervals varying from around
6 months in early versions to 2.5 years more recently. Each of those releases
was supported with full backports until the next release and with
security/corruption fixes until the next release after that.</p>
+
+<p>The support schedule for existing supported releases (1.10 and 1.9) shall
be interpreted as if each reference to a "next release" refers to a "next LTS
release". Therefore 1.9 will receive security/corruption fixes until 1.14
LTS.</p>
