You should talk about stable releases, LTS being some of them.
In current process, patches are applied in burst after -rc, right?
I think this burst mode is important to highlight.
Please, could you add a roadmap for each branch?
The roadmap could show EOL dates and the LTS ones.

You can test with "make".
On my machine I use "make PYTHON2=python2".
