+Title: Working in a possible LTS for Debian Squeeze
+Date: 2014-03-20 11:05
+Tags: squeeze, security
+Slug: working-on-squeeze-lts
+Author: Ana Guerrero Lopez
+Status: draft
+
+The Debian Security Team announced in the
+[bits from their last meeting](https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2014/03/msg00004.html)
+that they're considering to ask for the addition of a new suite to provide long
+term support (LTS) for Squeeze.
+
+Quoting their announcement:
+
+>* It needs to be pointed out that for this effort to be sustainable
+>  actual contributions by interested parties are required. squeeze-lts
+>  is not something that will magically fall from the sky. If you're
+>  dependent/interested in extended security support you should make an
+>  effort to contribute, either by contributing on your own or by
+>  paying a Debian developer/consultant to contribute for you.
+>  The security team itself is driving the effort, NOT doing it. Some team
+>  members will contribute to it individually, however.
+>
+>* Anyone interested in contributing, please get in touch with
+>  team at security.debian.org. We'll setup an initial coordination list
+>  with all interested parties. All policies / exact work will be
+>  sorted out there.
+
+This means this is still not something settled and if you or your company is
+insterested in joining this effort, you should contact the security team ASAP.
+So they can see if there is enough people and resources to launch the LTS.
