#2157 will add a new extended support column for tracking the dates of extended/commercial support.

Make a pass on all products to see if it make sense to use it.

Debian should have a split:

EOL = release+1yr, Supported by Debian Security Team.

The security team tries to support a stable distribution for about one year after the next stable distribution has been released, except when another stable distribution is released within this year. It is not possible to support three distributions; supporting two simultaneously is already difficult enough.

extended = release+5yr, Supported by Debian LTS Team.

Debian Long Term Support (LTS) is a project to extend the lifetime of all Debian stable releases to (at least) 5 years. Debian LTS is not handled by the Debian Security team, but by a separate group of volunteers and companies interested in making it a success.

An alternative is to use the ELTS offering instead as extended (extended=release+10yr), but it is much smaller in scope, with limited packages, so I'm not sure if we should use that.

./drupal.md

Drupal doesn't need one, it's referring to the extended LTS for the final one in a major series, like 8.9 LTS: https://hugovk.github.io/drupal-release-cycle/

Would make sense for nextcloud too : https://nextcloud.com/enterprise/.

- releasePolicyLink has been updated to the more generic link https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/policy_enterprise_lifecycle.html.
- Description of the extended support offer has been simplified to be more generic because it was incorrect (extended support for latest ColdFusion versions is 1 year). Users can refer to the Adobe documentation to know more.
