Excuse my words (I'm being direct, hopefully not offensive), but I'm calling "bullshit" on this one! :) Just read this page and you know:
Sorry, Thomas but being direct or justifying the disagreement is a separate thing from using such words, I do not find these appropriate. My humble request is to avoid these, please.
Yes, this page has all information but that is what my point was, you need to look into the release page to get those details then just getting that information from release name/number.
And when we will have tick-tock release model[1] number are more useful to know by operators what which one is tick release and which one is tock. With name only it is not best way to find.
Except that the above page could be modified to tell tick or tock...
Yes, that is the plan but we are checking the legal things also in case any issue to use 'tick', 'tock' word.
Also, hopefully, at some point we will forget about the "tock" release and decide it's ok to upgrade from 4 releases ago (how can you tell we're not going to do that one day?).
Anything is possible in the future :) and nobody knows that. But on a serious note, yes there might be a chance that tock can go away or tick timeline can be increased. That is what we will see based on feedback and users' need. But as per the current plan, there are no such things planned and we will continue with tick, tock way. -gmann
