Hi, > IIRC, the current release schedule has stable releases 2 years apart, so total maintenance time is 2 years (stable) + 1 year (oldstable) = 3 years. And that's 2 years less for LTS ... especially in bigger Setup's LTS-Support is mandatory so there (because there is no Debian LTS's) Debian cannot be used due to the lack of Support. Instead - Redhat or Ubuntu or any other distribution with LTS-Support is used there. Bye, Werner
