Hello,

In general, how long is a version for Debian supported?  Ie, I believe that it 
is Microsoft's policy to stop providing support (patches, fixes, etc) after 6 
years from a release.  Is there any such policy for Debian and if so- what is 
it?  What would it be for version 5?  Ie, is it safe to say that version 5 will 
not be supported after 2014?

The reason why I ask is because we have a hardware appliance that is based on 
Debian and we are working on upgrading to version 5.  Because the previous 
version is not longer supported, we need to provide a patch policy for our 
appliance.
