[Bug 1758702] Re: Please consider adding gitlab to sync blacklist

[Jeremy Bicha]

Ok, I found a policy [1]. My understanding is that there is no LTS
branch. You need to update monthly to be under support. This is similar
to how web browsers and webkitgtk are managed except that no one has
stepped up to handle these releases for Ubuntu and get the Release
Exception.

Unlike something like WordPress, I expect that at least the new major
releases (not done as often as monthly releases) to require updated
dependencies. But I haven't investigated whether that's true.

(Although WordPress doesn't advertise it, they do provide security
releases for old versions so WordPress is supportable if someone just
does the work to prepare and verify the updates.)
