It's pretty close, but more a matter of man-power than the devs wanting to go and do other things.<div><br></div><div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">
Hi,<br>Le 10/24/2011 04:55 PM, Pierre Gobin a écrit :<br>><br>> I wanted to react about the fact that <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">Lubuntu</span> 12.04 will not be a <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">LTS<br>
</span>> version. I think it is a really bad news. Is there really no chance<br>> that <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">Lubuntu</span> 12.04 be a <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">LTS</span> version ? Is the work too hard to maintain<br>
> a version during 3 years ?<br>Well, we don't really have the choice. Currently, I can't guarantee than<br>we will have people to maintain <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">Lubuntu</span> during 3 years. 3 years, it's<br>
long, and we have barely enough devs to maintain current releases.<br>Previous <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">LTS</span> releases were Ubuntu and Kubuntu, because they had enought<br>
devs on Ubuntu side (Ubuntu Desktop team and Kubuntu Team) and enough on<br>upstream team (GNOME and KDE). There are also companies support which<br>make easier the long term support.<br>However, as 12.04 will be a <span class="il" style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34);background-repeat:initial initial">LTS</span> for Ubuntu, we will do our best to<br>
maintain as much as we can this release, as long as we can, but I can't<br>ensure the 3 years support.<br>I hope I answer your question.<br>Regards,<br><img class="ajT" src="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/images/cleardot.gif" style="background-image: url(https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/ellipsis.png); background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; height: 8px; opacity: 0.3; width: 20px; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; "><br>
