> The pop-up on https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu/ still lists Ubuntu Wily (15.10), which is no longer
supportedas of 2016-07-28. Today, Ubuntu Yakkety (16.10) was released, so it seems like it might be a good time to
retire15.10 in favor of a set of 16.10 packages. 

Hi Jason,

thanks for spotting!

www: can you please remove Wily from the dropdown box?

Re Yakkety, we don't have a real policy yet on which non-LTS releases
we are supporting (there's so many of them...). Historically we've
added them once the most recent LTS packages started to be
uninstallable due to dependencies. Rebuilding packages for the newly
added distributions was always painful, but we have more experience
with that now.

Do we see a real user demand for the non-LTS releases so it would make
sense to add them? (In the past, that wasn't always the case.)

Christoph
