The Debian "Stretch" release isn't expected for more than a year, but itjust has been pushed back a couple of months, with the full freeze nowscheduled for February 5 of next year. The reason is to be able toship with the first kernel of the year (expected to be 4.10) that, bycurrent plans, should be a long-term support release."For the avoidance of doubt, this change is a one-off to align withan expected release of Linux only. We aren't in a position to tryand accommodate other projects, however much we'd like to be ableto."
