Re: [LTS] I'm very confused

 

Hi Ali,

in 12.04 whilst the *ubuntu* parts are LTS, the 'lubuntu' parts are not.
Also, as it was only our 2nd release the rules state that it could  not be
called LTS.

In 14.04, our devs have said that they will maintain the 'lubuntu' parts
for the life of the LTS.

Regards,

Phill.
