Open SSH End-of-Life Schedule?

Sorry, I should have been more clear.  Just wondering in general if there is a policy, not as any kind of library.  Below are more examples from that website of tools, servers and services.  It’s possible there still isn’t a timeframe but wondering about general end-of-life expectations even if there have been only cursory discussions.

https://endoflife.date/ansible-core
https://endoflife.date/tomcat
https://endoflife.date/postgresql

Example PostgreSQL Versioning policy:
https://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/
"The PostgreSQL Global Development Group supports a major version for 5 years after its initial release. After its five year anniversary, a major version will have one last minor release containing any fixes and will be considered end-of-life (EOL) and no longer supported."
