--- Comment #3 from Graham Perrin ◐ <grahamperrin@gmail.com> ---
Reading <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/schedule/>: 

* stable/13 branch created January 22, 2021

* releng/13.0 branch created February 5, 2021

* 13.0-RELEASE press release April 13, 2021


– alongside <https://www.freebsd.org/security/#sup> for stable/13: 

> … January 31, 2026

I imagine that 31st January was a (generously) rounded-up _end-of-month_ date
that aims to keep a five-year promise from when stable/13 was branched.

The proper date for an updated patch _might_ be end-of-month August 31, 2028.

I'm freewheeling towards bikeshed territory – with a question mark in the
summary line, which goes against proper use of Bugzilla (not for discussion) –
so I'll pause here, and not provide an update until after re@ can confirm or
correct things. 

Thanks
