I need some version clarification.

Is Qt 5.15.3 in the "strict" phase of the Qt LTS?

I have approved changes into Qt 5.15.3 under the assumption that we
are still in the stable phase, as I have not seen any emails to the
contrary.

I assumed this as the QUIP [1]  states:
>strict: This period starts when the one after next stable branch is created 
>(for the 5.12 LTS, the one after next was 5.14). Upgrading the Qt libraries 
>(within LTS) must not put installed applications at risk of breaking. Breaking 
>existing bug workarounds is therefore not allowed, even if the bug is fixed.

Which we are not yet in for Qt 5.15.


The same QUIP also states:

>Note: From 5.15 onwards, the extension of the stable phase becomes a service 
>for users of Qt under the commercial license.

If Qt 5.15.3 is for commercial users only, we must have entered the
strict phase.
Can you clarify which LTS state Qt 5.15.3 will be in. I might need to
double check my approvals.
