Hi Giovanni,

The idea is to invest more in bugfixing and bugfix releases for the LTR release. If a major problem in 2.8 LTR is found and 2.10 is already out, there would still be another bug fix release for 2.8 LTR. LTR is for one year of support in bug fixing.

QGIS PSC and QGIS-CH may also decide to invest more money into bug fixing of a LTR release.

Could you help me to understand what distinguishes a normal QGIS release and an LTR? In other sw the LTR (LTS) guarantees long term maintanance, backporting fixes, etc. but in the QGIS lifecycle a release is fixed, so what's the difference for the end user between 2.6 and 2.8? Maybe that it's download link will be mantained for a longer time? :)
