We really would love to be able to provide release or LTS branches,
but it simply comes down to resources. We'd need a few people working
in paid positions to manage RE environments. The FreeBSD Foundation
(which underwrites a couple very selective paid positions) has
prioritized development of new technologies to keep FreeBSD
competitive over third-party software backporting.
Hello Adam,
I'm not sure how can a LTS branch that you usually never update (except
CVE, security fixes) take more time than quarterly branches that you
need to recreate every 3 months and do some merges.
Basically, a LTS branch stay in marble for a release lifetime and will
only contain sporadic commits for security fixes or vulnerabilities.
That's mostly what Slackware does for a release version. For someone who
wants bleeding edge, they use slackware-current.
Regards,
