Evolution of the situation
August was a regular LTS month once again, even though it was only our 2nd month with Stretch LTS.
At the end of August some of us participated in DebConf 20 online
where we held our monthly team meeting. A video is available.
As of now this video is also the only public resource about the LTS survey we held in July, though a written summary is expected to be released soon.
The security tracker currently lists 56 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 55 packages needing an update.
