DebConf 16 Presentation
If you want to know more about how the LTS project is organized, you can watch the presentation I gave during DebConf 16 in Cape Town.
Evolution of the situation
The number of sponsored hours increased a little bit at 135 hours per month thanks to 3 new sponsors (Laboratoire LEGI – UMR 5519 / CNRS, Quarantainenet BV, GNI MEDIA). Our funding goal is getting closer but it’s not there yet.
The security tracker currently lists 40 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file lists 38 packages awaiting an update.
