The current release schedule offers 4 years of support for 1.10 so
it becomes obsolete after 2022-10-30. It would be good if we held
the promise we gave and kept supporting 1.10 at least until then.

However, we have traditionally supported two lines of releases,
one for every fix and an older one with just the critical fixes,
which is also what I would propose for our new release schedule
because it gives users time to migrate from one stable release to
the next one. In this case 1.10 would be supported with critical
fixes until 1.15 is released, possibly beyond 2022-10-30.
I think I would prefer this if we can manage to do so.

Hmm. We could simply leave this question open until 2022-10-30 :-)
