Hi, There is a lot of confusion around the LTR version. Just to make it clear: 2.14 will be advertised as LTR when 2.16 is released. The reason is, that in order to be stable enough to be called an LTR it should receive 2-3 bug fixing rounds. Many bug fixes that go into 2.16 are also backported to 2.14x.
So expect 2.14 to be advertised as LTR once 2.16 is out - probably in the second week of July. Hope this helps to clarify. Andreas On 2016-06-29 14:08, Jonathan Moules wrote: > 2.14 is an LTR?
