  • Update the details based on the adopted release plan
  • Modify the v0.12 maintenance expiration date to align
    with OpenSSL v1.0.1 LTS end

/cc @nodejs/lts

which it moves into Maintenance only mode until ~~April 1st, 2017~~
December 31st, 2016.
4. On or around October 1st, 2016, `v6.x.x` transitions into
the second LTS release.
5. LTS for v4.4.1 continues until April 1st, 2017, after which it
moves to Maintenance mode until around April 1st, 2017.

perhaps this should be a strikethrough as well?

has therefore decided that the best approach is to shorten the
maintenance period for v0.12 and align it's end date with that of
OpenSSL v1.0.1's end date.

It is better to add an official reference to
https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html
as there is a possibility to change their policy and schedule in the future.

@jasnell Could you please update this? @yosuke-furukawa wrote a blog in Japanese to explain LTS policy and schedule for introducing Node-v5.0, Argon and the forthcoming NodeFest and I found LTS end of v0.12 here has not been updated yet.

#66 states that it is unclear when 0.12 LTS support will end.

(note: the diagram above shows v0.12 maintenance expiring in April 2017. That
date has been changed to December 31st, 2016.)

Why does this PR update the actual in-tree LTS Schedule with an out-of-tree Draft schedule that has one date invalid?

Note: this specific change still doesn't look good to me.

What happened to this? Note that the LTS schedule is both linked from 6.0.0 release blog post and incorrect.
