Hi Fabien,

thank you for the symfony release roadmap!

I have one little question concerning non LTS releases:

Is this 8 months after the initial release of a non LTS release or 8 months 
after the subsequent release?

In case of the first alternative that would mean that we'd have to upgrade 
to the next release within two months, which is quite a short time 
regarding application release cycles in some environments (and a general 
hesitation to jump on x.y.0 releases ... ).

Regards,

Sven
