The lifecycle ends when the next version ships so technically the end of
1.0 is when 2.0 shipped, 2.0 when 3.0 shipped. No specific length of
time is given in advance for how long until the next version ships so it is
unknown when 4.0 will ship thereby ending the 3.0 lifecycle.

Yes. Both are based on SLE-12 SP2. 3.0 is based on SLE-12 SP3.
They can each upgrade from the previous version with a simple
update.  Their lifecyle is doc'ed here,

Thank you for the review,
