bionic, we should double-check with all the flavour leads what their<br>
support commitment plans are for 18.04. Currently, what we have live<br>
in production is:<br>
<br>
5 Year LTS:<br>
- Ubuntu Base / Cloud / Desktop / Server<br>
3 Year LTS:<br>
- Kubuntu<br>
- Lubuntu<br>
- Ubuntu Budgie<br>
- Ubuntu MATE<br>
- UbuntuKylin<br>
- Xubuntu<br>
Not LTS:<br>
- UbuntuStudio<br>
- Lubuntu Next<br>
<br>
It is highly recommended that flavours that choose to be LTS remain<br>
with a 3 years cycle, as that gives you an overlap to get users to<br>
the next LTS without committing to, frankly, a much longer support<br>
length than you think five years is until you've done it. ;)<br>
<br>
If we could get people to sound off with an "I represent $flavour, and<br>
I confirm that we intend to support 18.04 for 3 years" (or, obviously,<br>
let us know instead if you don't intend to do so, so we can adjust),<br>
that would be lovely.<br>
