Hello Adam,

I'm not sure how can a LTS branch that you usually never update (except 
CVE, security fixes) take more time than quarterly branches that you 
need to recreate every 3 months and do some merges.

Basically, a LTS branch stay in marble for a release lifetime and will 
only contain sporadic commits for security fixes or vulnerabilities. 
That's mostly what Slackware does for a release version. For someone who 
wants bleeding edge, they use slackware-current.

Regards,
