Hi,
The 4.14 kernel is listed as a 'Stable' but not as 'Longterm' in the kernel releases feed[1], is this expected?
Normally kernels are only listed as LTS once they leave their regular "stable" status, often after next kernel version is issued. I think this leaves a last minute chance to Greg to change his mind if the kernel he elected is too damaged ;-)
Cheers, Willy

I am seriously considering that here, due to all of this mess, let's see what happens over the next few weeks...
