Generally it takes 6 months development between releases. So the rough estimate 1 year of general updates from the community as a whole. Sometimes it takes slightly longer (or slightly less) then 6 months for the next release, and that will then adjust the time scales for the prior version slightly as well. One thing to keeo in mind for 'community support'. "Support" is not intended to be in the commercial sense, where there are specific fix time frames, etc. It just means there is an assigned maintainer and QA resources for that version during that time. It's still up to developers to send fixes for issues encountered to the maintainers to get the issues fixed. If you need a level of more dedicated support (time frame, resources, etc), you should look for a commercial Yocto Project member. --Mark > Regards, > Gaurang > > On Wed, Jan 16, 2019 at 9:50 AM Nicolas Dechesne <nicolas.deche...@linaro.org > <mailto:nicolas.deche...@linaro.org>> wrote: > > Hello, > > On Wed, Jan 16, 2019 at 9:47 AM Gaurang Shastri <gmshas...@gmail.com > <mailto:gmshas...@gmail.com>> wrote: > > > Hi All, > > For how many years yocto community officially support any Yocto > release? > (This includes like bug fixes, CVE fixes, enhancements, etc etc) > > For example, the latest release happened on 11/15/2018 (Yocto 2.6), so > how long this will be supported by community? > > Sorry, if this information is already present on some wiki page, but I > am not able to find it.
