Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, June 2021

Like each month, have a look at the work funded by Freexian s Debian LTS offering. Debian project funding In June, we put aside 5775 EUR to fund Debian projects for which we re looking forward to receive more projects from various
Debian teams! Learn more about the rationale behind this initiative in this article. Debian LTS contributors In June, 12 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS, their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 18.0h (out of 14h assigned and 19h from May), thus carrying over 15h to July.
Anton Gladky did 12h (out of 12h assigned).
Ben Hutchings did 13.25h (out of 14h assigned and 2h from May), thus carrying over 2.75h to July.
Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned).
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 29h (out of 40h assigned), thus carrying over 11h to July.
Holger Levsen s work was coordinating/managing the LTS team, he did 3.5h (out of 12h assigned) and gave back 8.5h to the pool.
Markus Koschany did 29.75h (out of 30h assigned plus 29.75h from May), thus carrying over 30h for July.
Ola Lundqvist did 10h (out of 12h assigned and 4.5h from May), thus carrying over 6.5h to July.
Roberto C. S nchez did 12h (out of 32h assigned), thus carrying over 20h to July.
Sylvain Beucler did 30h (out of 30h assigned).
Thorsten Alteholz did 30h (out of 30h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did not report back about their work so we assume they did nothing (out of 40h assigned), thus is carrying over 40h for July.

Evolution of the situation In June we released 30 DLAs. As already written last month we are looking for a Debian LTS project manager and team coordinator.
Finally, we would like to remark once again that we are constantly looking for new contributors. Please contact Holger if you are interested!

Like each month, have a look at the work funded by Freexian s Debian LTS offering.

[Part one, two, three and four] So we re still looking forward to receive more projects from various Debian teams! Learn more about the rationale behind this initiative in this article!

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, January 2020

Like each month, have a look at the work funded by Freexian s Debian LTS offering. Debian project funding In January, we put aside 2175 EUR to fund Debian projects. As part of this Carles Pina i Estany started to work on better no-dsa support for the PTS which recently resulted in two merge requests which will hopefully be deployed soon. We re looking forward to receive more projects from various Debian teams! Learn more about the rationale behind this initiative in this article. Debian LTS contributors In January, 13 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS, their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 9.0h (out of 14h assigned and 7h from December), thus carrying over 12h to February.
Adrian Bunk did 14h (out of 26h assigned), thus carrying over 12h to February, which he then gave back.
Ben Hutchings did 0.25h (out of 7h assigned and 8.5h from December), thus carrying over 15.25h to February.
Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned).
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did not report back about their work so we assume they did nothing (out of 26h assigned plus 9.5h from December), thus is carrying over 35.5h for February.
Holger Levsen did 6.5h coordinating/managing the LTS team..
Markus Koschany did 36.75h (out of 26h assigned and 10.75h from December).
Ola Lundqvist did 2.5h (out of 10.5h assigned and 11.5h from December) and gave back 9.5 hours, thus carrying over 10h to February.

Sylvain Beucler did 26h (out of 26h assigned).
Thorsten Alteholz did 26h (out of 26h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did 26h (out of 26h assigned).

Evolution of the situation In January we released 28 DLAs and held our first LTS team meeting for 2021 on IRC, with the next public IRC meeting coming up at the end of March. During that meeting Utkarsh shared that after he rolled out the python-certbot update (on December 8th 2020) the maintainer told him: I just checked with Let s Encrypt, and the stats show that you just saved 142,500 people from having their certificates start failing next month. I didn t know LTS was still that used!

Finally, we would like to welcome sipgate GmbH as a new silver sponsor. Also remember that we are constantly looking for new contributors. Please contact Holger if you are interested.

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, December 2020

Like each month, have a look at the work funded by Freexian s Debian LTS offering. Debian project funding In December, we put aside 2100 EUR to fund Debian projects. The first project proposal (a tracker.debian.org improvement for the security team) was received and quickly approved by the paid contributors, then we opened a request for bids and the bid winner was announced today (it was easy, we had only one candidate). Hopefully this first project will be completed until our next report. We re looking forward to receive more projects from various Debian teams! Learn more about the rationale behind this initiative in this article. Debian LTS contributors In December, 12 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS, their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 7.0h (out of 14h assigned), thus carrying over 7h to January.
Ben Hutchings did 16.5h (out of 16h assigned and 9h from November), thus carrying over 8.5h to January.
Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned), thus carrying over h to January.
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 16.5h (out of 26h assigned), thus carrying over 9.5h to January.
Holger Levsen did 3.5h coordinating/managing the LTS team.
Markus Koschany did 26h (out of 26h assigned and 10.75h from November), thus carrying over 10.75 h to January.
Ola Lundqvist did 9.5h (out of 12h assigned and 11h from November), thus carrying over 11.5h to January.
Roberto C. S nchez did 18.5h (out of 26h assigned and 2.25h from November) and gave back the remaining 9.75h.
Sylvain Beucler did 26h (out of 26h assigned).
Thorsten Alteholz did 26h (out of 26h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did 26h (out of 26h assigned).

Evolution of the situation December was a quiet month as we didn t have a team meeting nor any other unusual activity and we released 43 DLAs. The security tracker currently lists 30 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 25 packages needing an update. This month we are pleased to welcome Deveryware as new sponsor!

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, October 2020

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In October, 221.50 work hours have been dispatched among 13 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 16.0h (out of 14h assigned and 2h from September).
Adrian Bunk did 7h (out of 20.75h assigned and 5.75h from September), thus carrying over 19.5h to November.
Ben Hutchings did 11.5h (out of 6.25h assigned and 9.75h from September), thus carrying over 4.5h to November.
Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned).
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 20.75h (out of 20.75h assigned).
Holger Levsen did 7.0h coordinating/managing the LTS team.
Markus Koschany did 20.75h (out of 20.75h assigned).
Mike Gabriel gave back the 8h he was assigned. See below
Ola Lundqvist did 10.5h (out of 8h assigned and 2.5h from September).
Roberto C. S nchez did 13.5h (out of 20.75h assigned) and gave back 7.25h to the pool.
Sylvain Beucler did 20.75h (out of 20.75h assigned).
Thorsten Alteholz did 20.75h (out of 20.75h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did 20.75h (out of 20.75h assigned).

Evolution of the situation October was a regular LTS month with a LTS team meeting done via video chat thus there s no log to be shared. After more than five years of contributing to LTS (and ELTS), Mike Gabriel announced that he founded a new company called Frei(e) Software GmbH and thus would leave us to concentrate on this new endeavor. Best of luck with that, Mike! So, once again, this is a good moment to remind that we are constantly looking for new contributors. Please contact Holger if you are interested!

Evolution of the situation July was our first month of Stretch LTS! Given this is our fourth LTS release we anticipated a smooth transition and it seems everything indeed went very well. Many thanks to the members of the Debian ftpmaster-, security, release- and publicity- teams who helped us make this happen!
Stretch LTS begun on July 18th 2020 after the 13th and final Stretch point release. and is currently scheduled to end on June 30th 2022. Last month, we asked you to participate in a survey and we got 1764 submissions, which is pretty awesome. Thank you very much for participating!. Right now we are still busy crunching the results, but we already shared some early analysis during the Debconf LTS bof this week. The security tracker currently lists 54 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 52 packages needing an update. Thanks to our sponsors New sponsors are in bold.

Evolution of the situation June was the last month of Jessie LTS which ended on 2020-06-20. If you still need to run Jessie somewhere, please read the post about keeping Debian 8 Jessie alive for longer than 5 years.
So, as (Jessie) LTS is dead, long live the new LTS, Stretch LTS! Stretch has received its last point release, so regular LTS operations can now continue.
Accompanying this, for the first time, we have prepared a small survey about our users and contributors, who they are and why they are using LTS. Filling out the survey should take less than 10 minutes. We would really appreciate if you could participate in the survey online! On July 27th 2020 we will close the survey, so please don t hesitate and participate now! After that, there will be a followup with the results. The security tracker for Stretch LTS currently lists 29 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 44 packages needing an update in Stretch LTS. Thanks to our sponsors New sponsors are in bold. We welcome CoreFiling this month!

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, May 2020

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In May, 198 work hours have been dispatched among 14 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 18.0h (out of 14h assigned and 4h from April).
Anton Gladky gave back the assigned 10h and declared himself inactive.
Ben Hutchings did 19.75h (out of 17.25h assigned and 2.5h from April).
Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
Chris Lamb did 17.25h (out of 17.25h assigned).
Dylan A ssi gave back the assigned 6h and declared himself inactive.
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did not manage to work LTS in May and now reported 5h work in April (out of 17.25h assigned plus 46h from April), thus is carrying over 58.25h for June.
Markus Koschany did 25.0h (out of 17.25h assigned and 56h from April), thus carrying over 48.25h to June.
Mike Gabriel did 14.50h (out of 8h assigned and 6.5h from April).
Ola Lundqvist did 11.5h (out of 12h assigned and 7h from April), thus carrying over 7.5h to June.
Roberto C. S nchez did 17.25h (out of 17.25h assigned).
Sylvain Beucler did 17.25h (out of 17.25h assigned).
Thorsten Alteholz did 17.25h (out of 17.25h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did 17.25h (out of 17.25h assigned).

Evolution of the situation In May 2020 we had our second (virtual) contributors meeting on IRC, Logs and minutes are available online. Then we also moved our ToDo from the Debian wiki to the issue tracker on salsa.debian.org.
Sadly three contributors went inactive in May: Adrian Bunk, Anton Gladky and Dylan A ssi. And while there are currently still enough active contributors to shoulder the existing work, we like to use this opportunity that we are always looking for new contributors. Please mail Holger if you are interested.
Finally, we like to remind you for a last time, that the end of Jessie LTS is coming in less than a month!
In case you missed it (or missed to act), please read this post about keeping Debian 8 Jessie alive for longer than 5 years. If you expect to have Debian 8 servers/devices running after June 30th 2020, and would like to have security updates for them, please get in touch with Freexian. The security tracker currently lists 6 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 30 packages needing an update. Thanks to our sponsors New sponsors are in bold. With the upcoming start of Jessie ELTS, we are welcoming a few new sponsors and others should join soon.

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, April 2020

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In April, 284.5 work hours have been dispatched among 14 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 10.0h (out of 14h assigned), thus carrying over 4h to May.
Adrian Bunk did nothing (out of 28.75h assigned), thus is carrying over 28.75h for May.

Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned).
Dylan A ssi did 6h (out of 6h assigned).
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did not report back about their work so we assume they did nothing (out of 28.75h assigned plus 17.25h from March), thus is carrying over 46h for May.
Markus Koschany did 11.5h (out of 28.75h assigned and 38.75h from March), thus carrying over 56h to May.
Mike Gabriel did 1.5h (out of 8h assigned), thus carrying over 6.5h to May.

Thorsten Alteholz did 28.75h (out of 28.75h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did 24h (out of 24h assigned).

Evolution of the situation In April we dispatched more hours than ever and another was new too, we had our first (virtual) contributors meeting on IRC! Logs and minutes are available and we plan to continue doing IRC meetings every other month.
Sadly one contributor decided to go inactive in April, Hugo Lefeuvre.
Finally, we like to remind you, that the end of Jessie LTS is coming in less than two months!
In case you missed it (or missed to act), please read this post about keeping Debian 8 Jessie alive for longer than 5 years. If you expect to have Debian 8 servers/devices running after June 30th 2020, and would like to have security updates for them, please get in touch with Freexian.

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, March 2020

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In March, 252 work hours have been dispatched among 14 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Abhijith PA did 16.0h (out of 14h assigned and 2h from February).

LTS gained a new contributor in March, Anton Gladky, however he then decided to become active later this year. Similarly Hugo Lefeuvre notified us that he ll be inactive in April. In case you missed it (or missed to act), please read this post about keeping Debian 8 Jessie alive for longer than 5 years. If you expect to have Debian 8 servers/devices running after June 30th 2020, and would like to have security updates for them, please get in touch with Freexian.

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, February 2020

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In February, 226 work hours have been dispatched among 14 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Abhijith PA gave back 12 out of his assigned 14h, thus he is carrying over 2h for March.
Ben Hutchings did 19.25h (out of 20h assigned), thus carrying over 0.75h to March.
Brian May did 10h (out of 10h assigned).
Chris Lamb did 18h (out of 18h assigned).
Dylan A ssi did 5.5h (out of 4h assigned and 1.5h from January).
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 29h (out of 20h assigned and 15.75h from January), thus carrying over 6.75h to March.
Hugo Lefeuvre gave back the 12h he got assigned.
Markus Koschany did 10h (out of 20h assigned and 8.75h from January), thus carrying over 18.75h to March.
Mike Gabriel did 5.75h (out of 20h assigned) and gave 12h back to the pool, thus he is carrying over 2.25h to March.
Ola Lundqvist did 10h (out of 8h assigned and 4.5h from January), thus carrying over 2.5h to March.
Roberto C. S nchez did 20.25h (out of 20h assigned and 13h from January) and gave back 12.75h to the pool.
Sylvain Beucler did 20h (out of 20h assigned).
Thorsten Alteholz did 20h (out of 20h assigned).
Utkarsh Gupta did 20h (out of 20h assigned).

Evolution of the situation February began as rather calm month and the fact that more contributors have given back unused hours is an indicator of this calmness and also an indicator that contributing to LTS has become more of a routine now, which is good. In the second half of February Holger Levsen (from LTS) and Salvatore Bonaccorso (from the Debian Security Team) met at SnowCamp in Italy and discussed tensions and possible improvements from and for Debian LTS. The security tracker currently lists 25 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 21 packages needing an update. Thanks to our sponsors New sponsors are in bold.

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, October 2017

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In October, about 197 work hours have been dispatched among 13 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Antoine Beaupr did 21h (out of 16h allocated + 8.75h remaining, thus keeping 3.75h for November).
Ben Hutchings did 20 hours (out of 15h allocated + 9 extra hours, thus keeping 4 extra hours for November).
Brian May did 10 hours.
Chris Lamb did 18 hours.
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 7 hours (out of 20.75 hours allocated + 1.5 hours remaining, thus keeping 15.25 hours for November).
Guido G nther did 6.5 hours (out of 11h allocated + 1 extra hour, thus keeping 5.5h for November).
Hugo Lefeuvre did 20h.
Lucas Kanashiro did 2 hours (out of 5h allocated, thus keeping 3 hours for November).
Markus Koschany did 19 hours (out of 20.75h allocated, thus keeping 1.75 extra hours for November).
Ola Lundqvist did 7.5h (out of 7h allocated + 0.5 extra hours).
Rapha l Hertzog did 13.5 hours (out of 12h allocated + 1.5 extra hours).
Roberto C. Sanchez did 11 hours (out of 20.75 hours allocated + 14.75 hours remaining, thus keeping 24.50 extra hours for November, he will give back remaining hours at the end of the month).
Thorsten Alteholz did 20.75 hours.

Evolution of the situation The number of sponsored hours increased slightly to 183 hours per month. With the increasing number of security issues to deal with, and with the number of open issues not really going down, I decided to bump the funding target to what amounts to 1.5 full-time position. The security tracker currently lists 50 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file 36 (we re a bit behind in CVE triaging apparently). Thanks to our sponsors New sponsors are in bold.

Raphaël Hertzog: Freexian s report about Debian Long Term Support, August 2017

Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS. Individual reports In August, about 189 work hours have been dispatched among 12 paid contributors. Their reports are available:

Antoine Beaupr did 16h.
Ben Hutchings did 10 hours (out of 15h allocated + 1 extra hour, thus keeping 6 extra hour for September).
Chris Lamb did 18 hours.
Emilio Pozuelo Monfort did 20.5 hours (out of 20.25 hours allocated + 13 hours remaining, thus keeping 12.75 hours for September).
Guido G nther did 10 hours.
Hugo Lefeuvre did 14h (out of 2h allocated + 12 extra hours).
Lucas Kanashiro did 20.25 hours.
Markus Koschany did 20.25 hours.
Ola Lundqvist did 9h (out of 14h allocated + 16 extra hours, he gave back 14 hours, thus keeping 7 extra hours for September).
Rapha l Hertzog did 12 hours.
Roberto C. Sanchez did 27.25 hours (out of 20.25 hours allocated + 16 hours remaining, thus keeping 9 extra hours for September).
Thorsten Alteholz did 20.25 hours.

Evolution of the situation The number of sponsored hours is the same as last month. The security tracker currently lists 59 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file 60. The number of packages with open issues decreased slightly compared to last month but we re not yet back to the usual situation. The number of CVE to fix per package tends to increase due to the increased usage of fuzzers. Thanks to our sponsors New sponsors are in bold.
