I'd second the shorter lifespan of 3.0. It also emphasizes the point, that this is a major change release, and it should mature over time.

I think it makes sense to extend the release lifetime of 2.6 to 30 months. At the same time I'd like to avoid having more than three active stable releases at any given time. We'd either have to shorten the lifetime of 3.0 to 18 or 20 months or delay the release of 3.2 or 3.4 to fall 2019 and fall 2020 respectively, or both.

As we plan major changes in 3.0 perhaps it makes sense with a shorter lifespan?
