hi Lars,

If you look at the links on
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu/LTS you will see that
they refer to the last available release that passed testing. From those
onwards, you'd need to update & upgrade the system.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu/LTS+1 reflects this
for the 14.04.4 (If it gets used).

Regards,

Phill.
