We should stick with the longer support for Icehouse in my opinion. I'll
happily volunteer time to help get it back into shape.

The other question is will Juno *also* have extended stable support? Or is
it more of an LTS style thing (I'm not a huge fan of the LTS model, but it
is easier in some regards). If every release is getting extended support,
we may need to look at our tool chains so we can better support the
releases.

Cheers,
Morgan
