Hi All,
The 5.10 LTS kernel being officially LTS supported for 2 years presents a problem: why would anyone select a 5.10 kernel with 2 year LTS when 5.4 kernel has a 6 year LTS.
Yet, various unofficial reports indicate it will be supported for 6 years. And AOSP has already declared the use of 5.10 kernel in their Android S and T releases.
Is there some way we could make the LTS support more clear. A 2 year declaration is not LTS any more. If 5.10 is "actually" going to be supported for 6 years it would be quite valuable to make such a declaration. https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
Regards, Scott
