For the kernel-team: We need to pick for the bookworm release again a
longterm maintenance release. This means the following: Greg will
usually pick the "last" released kernel of the year to be the LTS one.
It is thus not that important how many stable released already
happened for that particular brnach as it will the longterm
maintained. But we defintively need to pick the correct one on this
regard.

Salvatore
