On February 4th Vivid Vervet will reach the end of it's support period.

Text from Adam Conrad's mail to the Ubuntu announce mailing list [1]:

    Ubuntu announced its 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) release almost 9 months
    ago, on April 23, 2015.  As a non-LTS release, 15.04 has a 9-month
    month support cycle and, as such, the support period is now nearing
    its end and Ubuntu 15.04 will reach end of life on Thursday, February
    4th.  At that time, Ubuntu Security Notices will no longer include
    information or updated packages for Ubuntu 15.04.

    The supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 15.04 is via Ubuntu 15.10.
    Instructions and caveats for the upgrade may be found at:

    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WilyUpgrades

    Ubuntu 15.10 continues to be actively supported with security updates
    and select high-impact bug fixes.  Announcements of security updates
    for Ubuntu releases are sent to the ubuntu-security-announce mailing
    list, information about which may be found at:

    https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce

    Since its launch in October 2004 Ubuntu has become one of the most
    highly regarded Linux distributions with millions of users in homes,
    schools, businesses and governments around the world. Ubuntu is Open
    Source software, costs nothing to download, and users are free to
    customise or alter their software in order to meet their needs.

    On behalf of the Ubuntu Release Team,

    Adam Conrad


As such, support from us will end at the same time.

Regards
