Hi, thanks for pointing this out. Never heard of it before. I had a look at the ftp-master API but it seems there is currently no link between release number and code name and no way to tell whether a suite is long-term supported. https://api.ftp-master.debian.org/suite/wheezy I guess I will contact the debian-dak list and request this feature. No idea if the madison interface to UDD or tracker.debian.org provide more information than that. For now I intend to use Guido's approach. Regards, Markus
