+1 for this.

I would even NOT make any provision for a "schedule".
LTR is meant to be STABLE, so there should really be NO schedule
to publish an update to it. Updates should be triggered ONLY by an fixes
to "serious" bugs (crashers / data corruptions).

Rather than a "max" time, there should eventually be a "min" time
between such updates, simply to avoid a too frequent update cycle
(ie: once per bugfix).
