Unless anybody else suggests a different way to handle this, it IMHO certainly makes sense if you attend the ESC meeting today.
(I've added that item to the agenda for now.)

To @all

I consider this problem solved iff the agreement reached during the last ESC and written the minutes is met:

Ensuring there is no gap and the N-1 release doesn't EOL before N+2 is released, this will fix the issue: the situation where the version of -still equals the version of -fresh at some periods of the year will not happen anymore.

So in this use case, the end of date of 6.4 [1] should have been extended to Feb 7 2021 [2] instead of Nov 30 2020.

Like written and confirmed by Cloph, we can accept <=1 week of delay between announcement and the TDF update service **iff** we stick to it and we are consistent in the delay where the TDF update service and announcement are out of sync.
