		To be fair, it’s versions of Linux distros they test against in their CI.

Renovatebot would solve this consistently and is more broadly applicable.

		Renovatebot (GitLab)/dependabot (GitHub) tends to update versions rather than add new entries.

I'm sorry... what?

> LTS or ‘Long Term Support’ releases are published every two years in April

I wouldn't want to work somewhere that can't plan around something as simple as this.

		Places can plan around this, but it seems silly to have calendar invitations and project management and manual work when you can just automate it. I wouldn't want to work anywhere that couldn't automate it this if it became the top of the automation priority list.
