I don't fully understand this implication, but anyway, we have never given any guarantee about the stability :-) Please note that backporting to older LTSs doesn't imply better stability as backports itself can introduce new bugs and the risk of such bugs grows with backporting to older and older releases > Also, Richard Made a point with the security patches. well, this is community driven effort and thus the resources are limited. If someone wants to start with backporting security bugfixes into more LTSs, I guess everybody will welcome such effort, but so far, as already Daniel mentioned in previous email, we had hard times to keep the schedule (well, we don't keep it at all) just with one LTS, so I can hardly imagine that we would support more LTS (at least with current schedule). Thanks for understanding Vojta
