Possibly a little early - Debian 7 will be going onto LTS security support for
two years, starting some time this month. Quoting from
https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
"Debian 6 “Squeeze” until February 2016
Debian 7 “Wheezy” from February 2016 to May 2018
Debian 8 “Jessie“ from May 2018 to April/May 2020"
