<div class="moz-cite-prefix">With the current amount of
contributors, the team doesn't wish to offer support for longer
than 3 years. The Ubuntu core packages are supported for 5 years
as usually.<br>
<br>
The other flavors announce their LTS status and lenght on their
own mailing lists or other outlets, you should follow them for
that information.<br>

Nelson Mandela explained Ubuntu as follows:<br>
“A traveller through a country would stop at a village and he
didn't have to ask for food or for water. Once he stops, the
people give him food, entertain him. That is one aspect of
Ubuntu but it will have various aspects. Ubuntu does not mean
that people should not address themselves. The question
therefore is: Are you going to do so in order to enable the
community around you to be able to improve?"
