For those of you who thought Debian Stable wasn't stable enough, Michael Larabel over at Phoronix is reporting that Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" is being turned into an LTS release.

Regular security support for Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" was set to end after next month, but now the Debian developers have decided to provide security support for this 2011 Debian Linux release until February 2016 - marking five years since the original Debian 6.0 release.

    I apologise for that. The heading is as it was received and I had intended to change it - for some reason I forgot. I will now stand in the corner facing the wall for a suitable period of time.

    My bad then. I'm blaming it on boredom and a droll sense of humor. I shall now memorize the AD&D 2E saving throw and thac0 tables in recompense.

      Haha no worries. It was a great pun, just confusing as a headline.
