I see. I simply took the phrases in pgsql-announce "September is EOL" and "only expects one more release" as meaning "only expects one more release in September", because I didn't imagine a minor version is released after EOL.

If possible, I was happy if I saw "only expects one more release in November" or "on a regular schedule".
