Hi Raghav,

Honestly no idea where I stand on that but I can bring the 
popcorn.

Linux.

Linux-Libre don't develop a kernel nor backport/provide any of 
said long-term ‘support’.  They're ‘upstream’ of us in a trivial 
way: we gratefully re-use their work.

> The linux-libre uses the name 'lts'.

Where?  It's neither here[0] nor there[1].  I found it on blogs.

The name isn't that important; just don't change it for fun, and 
‘longterm’ is what I'm used to hearing upstream.

Kind regards,

T G-R
