I understand very well that it might be a very hard work to maintain an OS, especially for a small team. I would to thank you and all Lubuntu's team for the work which has been made on the distro, and good luck for the next.

Currently, I can't guarantee than we will have people to maintain Lubuntu during 3 years. 3 years, it's long, and we have barely enough devs to maintain current releases. Previous LTS releases were Ubuntu and Kubuntu, because they had enought devs on Ubuntu side (Ubuntu Desktop team and Kubuntu Team) and enough on upstream team (GNOME and KDE). There are also companies support which make easier the long term support. However, as 12.04 will be a LTS for Ubuntu, we will do our best to maintain as much as we can this release, as long as we can, but I can't ensure the 3 years support. I hope I answer your question.

I believe Long Term Support only applies to the software on the LTS CDs. For instance, Firefox will be supported; Chromium won't be. Unity is, GNOME Shell isn't. GNOME Fallback probably will be supported since it's on the Edubuntu DVD. The community can fix bugs in other apps; they just don't have the Ubuntu/Canonical promise.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] [Lubuntu 12.04] No LTS
Hi. I have a similar question. Ubuntu 12.04 will be LTS, but Lubuntu won't. So, if I install Ubuntu 12.04 and then install the lubuntu-desktop, I will have a "Lubuntu LTS"??

[Lubuntu-desktop] [Lubuntu 12.04] No LTS
Hello everybody, First of all I am sorry for my bad English ; I hope I will be understood :) I wanted to react about the fact that Lubuntu 12.04 will not be a LTS version. I think it is a really bad news. Is there really no chance that Lubuntu 12.04 be a LTS version ? Is the work too hard to maintain a version during 3 years ? ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
