We don't have one — I remember that we talked about this when 5.3 was
getting close to EOL (and, unfortunately, can't find the conversation
now, nor even remember if it was via e-mail or IRC), but I don't think
anything concrete came out of that besides "we'll keep it for now and
assess the situation as we go".
EOL +3 months seems like a fairly sensible guideline to me, in which
case we hit that tomorrow for 5.3. Any objections to my removing 5.3
from the home and downloads pages tomorrow?
