Determinate Secure Packages
Support calendar
The support timeline for currently available and future distributions of Determinate Secure Packages.
We support every Determinate Secure Packages distribution for at least 12 months, and one in every four is a DSP 60 distribution that receives 60 months of long-term support (LTS). There is always at least one LTS distribution available. We also support a rolling distribution that stays up to date with latest in Nixpkgs.
If you need support beyond 60 months, we offer optional extended support for any LTS distribution. and we'll work out the terms together.
