We talked about this a bit on #tor-dev earlier: I think that the
decision was that on this post, we're only going to focus on EOL
issues, including the upcoming EOL of 0.2.9 in January 2020.

I think there was possibly a second decision that we should figure out
what we want our LTS policy to be like before we start declaring to
the world that we're changing it. :)
