I just automatically checked and synchronized all the sources, the issues below should be fixed by now. Keep in mind that the eol date is not fixed until eol is announced, therefore any dates published which are in the future are prone to errors. I'm not sure the date in /etc/os-release is updated tbh.

I have one different open issue here: The differentiation between the "released" and "latest" columns doesn't really make sens here imo. Fedora gets updated all the time but there are no minor/patch versions. In all but two cases the dates are the same anyway, in those two cases I think on date is wrong. (Early release date from the planning schedule.)

Also I'm not convinced wiki pages are great for talking 🤔


Release dates seem to be wrong as compared to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_Linux_release_history#Fedora_Linux_34

Wikipedia is probably correct since endoflife.date is listing Fedora 35 and 34 as having been released on the same day.


I don't think the EOL date for Fedora 38 is currentyly correct (listed as 18 May 2024). The project is now setting their EOL dates in the /etc/os-release file and that file says it's May 14, 2024.
