I know. > If it is really critical for you, you should have a look here: > https://www.debian.org/consultants/ I am one myself. > or > http://www.freexian.com/services/debian-lts.html Maybe I was not clear enough that I am talking about the future, not about the past. So I would like to have one year for switching from Wheezy to Jessie. I am glad with one year support for oldstable. See e.g.: https://www.debian.org/security/2013/dsa-2716 Wheezy was released on May 4 2013, so the security support for Squeeze was dropped in less then 2 months after the release of Wheezy. That's too short for me. When there is more needed, I would like a discussion. E.g. about backporting of packages when they are needed for compiling. The people from Mozilla could help with this goal (but maybe they do allready what they can).
