I think the answer here is: we don't commit to which day in the month is the day that support ends. Carlton summarized this on Twitter ( https://mobile.twitter.com/carltongibson/status/1501097294954905600 ) recently: PSA: If you need to know the **exact** day LTS support ends, you waited too > long. > > Django 2.2 is EOL next month folks. > Typically security/bugfix releases are monthly, near the start of the month. So announcing this release as the end of support is to be expected. My personal advice is to not use LTS releases, and upgrade to each new feature version. There's not really a huge difference in stability, and you'll reduce the risk by upgrading more frequently.
