I'm debating the wording of the EoL paragraph, specifically:
<p>After this point release, updates to Debian 8 will no longer be made
by Debian's security and release teams, with support moving to the LTS
team. See <url "https://wiki.debian.org/LTS";>; for further details.
Users wishing to continue to receive regular security support must
upgrade to Debian 9.
</p>
The "regular security support" phrasing doesn't sit properly. It was
intended to be regular in the sense of standard (although I don't think
that really works either), but I can see it being read as "timely
security support", and don't really want this to be getting into a
discussion on the merits of LTS.
Opinions on alternative words / phrasing, or indeed means of
sidestepping the issue, welcome.
Adam
