From ea522496afa1dd4ed295466e9c813b88ebda3284 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Desaulniers Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2022 10:10:40 -0700 Subject: Documentation: process: replace outdated LTS table w/ link The existing table was a bit outdated. 3.16 was EOL in 2020. 4.4 was EOL in 2022. 5.10 is new in 2020. 5.15 is new in 2021. We'll see if 6.1 becomes LTS in 2022. Rather than keep this table updated, it does duplicate information from multiple kernel.org pages. Make one less duplication site that needs to be updated and simply refer to the kernel.org page on releases.
