Hi all
The question about LTRs came up a few times over the past year(s)
but noone seems to have started a proper discussion about LTRs so this
mail is intended to change that.
Do people want LTRs ?
As far as i can tell, yes
Should we have LTRs ?
Id say, if people want them, yes sure
What do we need to have LTRs ?
Each LTR needs a maintainer, no maintainer, no LTR
What does such a maintainer need to do ?
keep track of security fixes (vissible on our security page / easy to

Backport security fixes
Make new point releases
Comments and Maintainers welcome!
Thanks
