hi,

I think it is a good idea to keep the current system: we have an estimation
based on the release date, but co-ordinate the actual release/extended
support/eol dates.
I agree that it make sense to explicitly state in the last release's
announcement that the support for that particular version has ended, plus
if by any chance the last 5.4 release would happen together with the next
5.5 release then that would make it more consistent too, but ofc. that
depends on what do we have in the pipe.
