Thanks for documenting this! In practical terms, we have now promised to release 1.11.0 around October, so we should start thinking of cutting a 1.11.x stabilization branch around late August / early September. The new documentation states that 1.9 would be an LTS release, to be supported until 1.14; I had assumed 1.10 would be an LTS release (supported until 1.14 is released + overlap period) but 1.9 would be a "normal" release, to be supported until 1.11 is released. That would be consistent both with the guarantees made when 1.9 was released and with the new "1.x is LTS if (x%4 == 2)" practice.
