Security support for Stretch LTS will be handed over on July 18, 2020,
after the last point release.
What's that supposed to mean? Support for oldstable ends on the 6th
And why was this not send to team@s.d.o?
Cheers,
Moritz
Sorry, but I was assuming that the official end of oldstable is on July
18 when Debian 9.13 is released.

It was sent to debian-release too. No ill intent from our side.

That syncs up potentially missing builds and creates the "final" installation images for Stretch, but updates end on the 6th.

No ill intent assumed. But please explicitly CC us on the next LTS announcement draft, so that we don't only notice this by chance :-)
Security support for Stretch LTS will be handed over on July 18, 2020,
after the last point release.
The supported architectures include amd64, i386, armel, armhf
and arm64 now.
[adding team@security.debian.org to CC due to parallel thread]
Hi Markus,
The supported architectures include amd64, i386, armel, armhf
and arm64 now.
On this point (at line 36) file, as this is an announcement of a
transition may I suggest making a distinction between of these
architectures are new to this support cycle? (i.e. "diff")
What do you think about changing the paragraph (line 34 to 36) to:
Debian 9 will also receive Long Term Support for five years after its
initial release with support ending on June 30, 2022. The supported architectures remain amd64, i386, armel and armhf. In addition we are
pleased to announce, for the first time support will be extended to
include the arm64 architecture.
As a LTS contributor I'm not sure (and hence, I suspect this this would
be worth clarifying in the announcement) whether Stretch security
updates will be made between July the 6th and the 18th ?
I have changed the date to 6th from 18th.
