SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 16.0

Support windows are getting shorter: the most recent cycles run about 4 months less than the earlier ones.

Computed from release and end-of-life dates tracked for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Medians are used rather than averages so one unusually short or long release does not skew the figure. Cycles with no recorded end-of-life date are excluded from the support window.
