How long do you expect?

Java 7 had less than four years of support.

Ubuntu Desktop LTS was three years, and starting with 12.04 it increased to five years.

That's a language runtime and an operation system known for their stability, forming the bottom of very wide and deep ecosystems.

Show me a web framework with a 3 year LTS, and I'm overjoyed.

Symfony has 3 year LTS plus a year security support after. http://symfony.com/doc/current/contributing/community/releas...
