    I honestly think we need community-managed LTS distros. This is a good start.

      Doesn’t Debian already effectively fill that niche? The 18 months of support that Mageia has isn’t very LTS compared to Debian’s 5 years.

        Debian supports their version for two years. Then you need to upgrade.

        But I just think more options are always good. Only having one just limits us to a mono-culture if we don’t want to go with some corporate solution.

          According to this, All Debian releases since Debian 6 have had LTS support, which extends support for a total of 5 years.

          If that’s your argument, Mageia only supports each of the version for two years since release.

          I do agree that diversity is good tho.
