Thanks Martin, We of course are in the process of migrating on from Jessie but due to LTS the timescales were deliberately left quite loose.
Re your timeline email - I think it's a good idea having such a timeline prominently reiterated. It certainly hadn't occurred to me that support for debian-cloud would vary from LTS but I'm learning that one does not necessarily follow the other. As for LTS security support, we've found it to be excellent. The only thing I would say (which has been mentioned already) is it wasn't a particularly seamless transition as far as the mailing list goes.
