I suspect that Debian 10 and 11 will continue getting security patches for some time. All the same, it's great progress. :)

- captn3m0 4y agoDebian 11 goes EOL in August 2026.
- chungy 4y agoIt's pretty bold to pin such a specific date when the release date of Debian 12 is not yet known. Debian releases are fully supported for one year after the next release launches, and then the LTS projects keep it going for another 5~7 years.
- captn3m0 4y agoTrue, should have said "around Aug 2026" perhaps? The LTS project[0] plans for a minimum of 5 year support from the date of initial release, so Aug 2026 is based on the Aug 2021 release date + 5 years. The rough-schedule on the LTS wiki also uses "June 2026" for now. That's what we've been showing so far on https://endoflife.date/debian https://endoflife.date/debian (With a disclaimer about what LTS means). Suggestions welcome!
