From e139eeeb7a6fdcf71200d59360e7281b935d64ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Trott Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2016 09:26:50 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] doc: remove outdated LTS info from ROADMAP.md The ROADMAP.md doc has not been substantially updated since its creation in February 2015. As such, the LTS information is incorrect. Removing it for now. (If it is deemed critical to the roadmap, links to current information can be added back in. I'm skeptical that the roadmap document is of much utility at this point, though, given the lack of updates. Less may be more here, as the cliche goes.)
