I believe it's still the intention. It's been the official policy for many years (documented on the security webpage), although in the past (during my time as security officer) we did the extra work of extending support for some older branches beyond their official lifetime. I considered that work to be purely an additional courtesy to the users of older branches though, and not something we were bound by policy to continue.
