He he, i knew you are lurking somewhere :-). Yeah, i will just have to give it time.

Good to hear about the possibility of a LTS release! Any rough estimation about the timeframe?

Oh and by the way, the documentation is fantastic.Big thank you!

  > Any rough estimation about the timeframe?
Not particularly. It's still in early stages. We proposed a "Rust platform" idea, but it was poorly received by a large chunk of the community. We are starting towards moving towards a kind of "yearly planning" strategy, which would be one option for the timing of such a thing. But we'll see; it really needs someone to champion it, and like any other feature, as we start to feel pressure, we'll start to prioritize it relative to other things.
