NOBODY.  Nowhere in this thread has anybody suggested there's working 
support.  I just fail to see how you can say that Kubuntu has _dropped_ support while they are rolling it out with whatever buggy software they 
have.

If you keep making up what I'm saying, I'm going to have start calling you names like "liar".

So?  There are way more developers, on both Ubuntu and Kubuntu than 
there are Canonical employees.  And the Canonical employees who are 
QA'ing "Ubuntu" are also QAing the common portions of both.

Citation, please.  It doesn't follow unless you can demonstrate the 
truth of your proposition...

Even then, it comes down to the activity and technical expertise of that 
user base as to whether that means Ubuntu is better supported.

You could always choose to actually prove your assertions.
