The wording id fine. The only thing is that "will be released" is in the
future tense and 16.11.1 is due to be release. So it may be better as 
below. Also s/maintainance/maintenance/


	<h3 id="stable">Stable and LTS release</h3>
	<p>A new stable release will be made about every 3 months, shortly (around
	3 weeks) after an upstream release has been made. For example, v16.11.1
	was released shortly after v17.02.
	<p>In general, there will only be one such release for a stable release. 
	For an LTS release, which has a longer maintenance period (2 years)
	there will be several releases (.2, .3, etc.).

Agreed. Just add 3 weeks to the other release dates as a guidance.
