This is somewhat like our "late" release announcements.   We (now) announce
when binaries are available and not when the actual release happens (ie.
release branch, release tag, tarball).

And the website names the version LTR that is in the LTR package repositries
and not the one that is in the regular repositories - although it currently is
a LTR as well.

And that the new LTR (that didn't see any extra maintanance yet) doesn't
replace the old LTR right away was a conscious decision - but a bit influenced
by the build scripts usually dealing with two different parallel releases and
resolving what to do when there's just one.   Doing it like this IMHO is better
than just leaving one repository age or feeding both with same stuff.

Re: [Qgis-user] Next LTR RElease

2016-06-29 Thread Neumann, Andreas 
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.

Hi Jonathan,

You can find the roadmap here, yes 2.14 is an LTR.
https://www.qgis.org/en/site/getinvolved/development/roadmap.html#release-schedule

The update on the page should happen in a week. My point of view
regarding this topic can be found here:
http://gis.stackexchange.com/a/188243/9839

While this may not reflect the official position of the project (if
there's any) and while the current windows release names may more be a
side-effect of release scripts than a conscious decision I pretty much
like the added maintenance time (cooldown period).

Cheers
Matthias

2.14 is an LTR? On the QGIS home page under the big Download Now button it says:

"Version 2.14.3 
 LTR Version 2.8.9"

I'd suggest that should probably be updated to state that 2.14 is an LTR too.
Cheers,
Jonathan

2.14 was released in February and is the current LTR (ie. gets backports). But 
hasn't yet replaced the previous LTR in the repositories. That will happen 
when 2.16 is released and "fresh" 2.14 has seen four month of maintanance.

2.14 was released in February and is the current LTR (ie. gets backports).  But
hasn't yet replaced the previous LTR in the repositories.  That will happen
when 2.16 is released and "fresh" 2.14 has seen four month of maintanance.

HI,

2.14 will be LTR once 2.16 is release in around 10 days.
