Greg KH said 4.19 was going to be the next LTS. But, regardless, if we
view bugs in the CoC as "just bugs", then can't we also include their
fixes in -stable? It'll land in 4.19.z just like anything else. I
don't think we need to rush anything into 4.19 -- as so many others
have said: it's in our best interest to take the time to get the CoC
right.
