I know that Debian does its thing the Debian way, but I'd like to at least see a definite period of support for the project's releases. That means I don't care when they come out; it doesn't have to be every six months or even every year. But I'd like to see the project pledge to support Etch for five years, regardless of when the next Debian release achieves Stable status. In other words, I'd like to see Debian treat itself a little more like the"enterprise" Linux releases from Red Hat and Novell -- and like Ubuntu -- by taking the guesswork out of how long distributions will receive support.
