I misunderstood the question I guess.  I saw 'stable/LTS' and assumed it
was lumping them together, sorry.

Red Hat uses the LTS trees.  We don't use the 'stable' tree (ie: Red Hat
won't use 19.08.1).  Kevin can correct me if i got something wrong here.

I was under the impression that the instant (X+2).11 releases, X.11 is
EOL.  I guess that's for someone else to explain (maybe a candidate for
something in doc/guides/.../release_cadence.rst to help clarify)?
