Thanks Kamaraju, that looks awesome.

So extrapolating from the pattern of the dates, i would guess that
'stretch' should be actually released on the creation date of
'buster', 2018-07-01.

(And i should note, just for the record, that indeed the wikipedia
article on debian versions had more information than i realized; i was
just looking at the infobox at top.  Thanks Pierre for reading more
carefully than me!!)
