Was there an agreement about this? I've searched for a specific date, with no success. Yesterday Santiago Ruano Rincón sent a related message[1]: > Moreover, squeeze lts has been advertised to end next February, the 6th > to be precise.

And yes, although the LTS Wiki page[2] currently states that Wheezy well be supported from February 2016, there's no mention on the Debian Security FAQ[3] that they will be stopping the Wheezy support prematurely (e.g. because it will be handled by the LTS team). So, will there be some overlap, like both Security and LTS teams working on supporting the same release for a few (2-3) months?
