Because as a downstream vendor X + 3 months usually translates to X, because there is no time to prepare for any of this, especially when swift adoption is enforced by upstream, e.g. by deprecated packages, quarterly branch and locking users out of the ports tree. To that end, https://www.freebsd.org/releng/index.html states: > Upcoming Release Schedule > NOTE: Release dates are approximate and may be subject to schedule slippage. > As of 2017-10-03, the next release has not yet been announced. Thank you, Franco
