The last release to have Long Term Support was Dapper Drake 6.06 .
It will be approximately 2 years since its release when 8.04 comes out.

If it is the same as 6.06 , it will be supported for 5 years on the server
and 3 years on the desktop.

See for example

I don't know what you mean by "fuss" :-)
