So I noticed today that the release information [0] for Newton appears to have the wrong date for when Newton transitions to the Legacy Phase. According to this conversation [1], I think (thought?) we established that rolling over to each support phase would stay on a 6 month cycle, despite Ocata being a shorter development cycle.
I am not talking about EOL here, just the transition periods for stable branches to move to the next phase. Based on this, the Next Phase for Newton appears to be wrong because it is on a 6 month period from the Ocata release, not based on Newton's actual release date. I was going to put up a patch to fix this, but then got myself really confused because I couldn't actually reconcile the dates based on how the rest of the phase information is listed there. Going off of what we state in our Stable Branch phases [2], we are not following what we have published there. Based on that information, Mitaka should still be in the Legacy phase, and not actually EOL'd for another 6 months. (Well, technically that actual EOL date isn't called out in the documentation, so I'm just assuming another 6 months) So I'm not proposing we un-EOL Mitaka or change any of our policy. I'm just pointing out that the information we have in [2] does not appear to be what we are actually following according to [0], so we should change one or the other to be consistent. Our EOL dates on the releases page are actually the dates they should transition to Phase III according to our Stable Branch "Support Phases" section as it is right now.
