Stealing this LTS thread, there's something from Qt I'd like to copy:
Currently, Qt 5.6 LTS is in the _‘strict’_ phase where it only
receives selected critical fixes and next it is moving into the
‘_very strict_’ phase. During this final phase, Qt 5.6 LTS will
receive important security fixes only.
I think this phasing is something we should take on, we're making more
mistakes as it gets further away from master, and it makes it then
more managemeable to have two LTS releases in parallel.
+1, personally I would go so far and actually lock down the branches a
bit. E.g. only release managers being allowed to push to Plasma/5.8 from
now on.
