Well, the first LTS was Asterisk 1.4 (although we didn't call it an LTS 
then). The second LTS was Asterisk 1.8. The third would be Asterisk 11. 
It's just a quirk of the version numbering scheme.

The proposal is that yes, we'd be committing to producing an LTS every 2 
years, and a standard release in the intervening years.
