I appreciate that, and I suspect the LTS efforts are of most interest to those
running production servers. I would think anyone developing on Debian is
likely to be running stable at least. Although I've worked at many
development companies running elderly LTS versions of Ubuntu, Fedora/Centos,
etc, I admit I've yet to meet one that ran Debian at all.
Nevertheless if I can be of any help in supporting and testing on versions of
Debian, I'm happy to do so.
