I suppose we need to understand Catalyst's upgrade strategy a bit more. It
we as a community are going to do LTS, we need to really commit to it.
19.11 will be two years out as of the 21.11 release.
Ubuntu LTS releases are every two years. If my math is correct, that would
mean that 21.11 would be the next LTS release. Does Catalyst plan on
upgrading from 19.11 to 21.11?
I'm curious how many libraries would utilize an LTS release and upgrade
bi-annually.
Do we have any metrics on what is being pulled from the community apt
server? If not, is it possible to add tracking?
In the first step I was suggesting a script in the release-tools repo

That sounds good to me! I can imagine a new bugzilla field for "Fails to
apply to" that would be a list of release branches ( 21.05.x, 20.11.x, etc
) so we would be aware.

Indeed! I know many ByWater partners use the desktop application.
I'd go so far to say I'm not aware of any ByWater partners using the FF
plugin or the HTML5 version at this time.

Desktop application has gotten us out of a couple of tight spots so we
could still operate as a lending library while we had a complete loss of
all things internet.
