My post quoted other kernels, not 4.4, which this news article is about. My point is that a kernel version doesn't get 6 year treatment for the first time thing as this PR/news piece paints it out.
> The future dates you are quoting were recently updated to those dates
Nope, I see same dates there (except 4.4 which I didn't quote in my above comment contrary to what you seem to be claiming)
> also they're just from an unexplained column called "projected EOL
Just like the current page: https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
