Is there *any* indication when X + 3 is going to be?  Because as a =

vendor X + 3 months usually translates to X, because there is no time to =

for any of this, especially when swift adoption is enforced by upstream, =

by deprecated packages, quarterly branch and locking users out of the =

To that end, https://www.freebsd.org/releng/index.html states:
