3.6 Lifespan
============
3.6 will receive bugfix updates approximately every 3-6 months for
approximately 18 months. After the release of 3.7.0 final, a final
3.6 bugfix update will be released. After that, it is expected that
security updates (source only) will be released until 5 years after
the release of 3.6 final, so until approximately December 2021.
