Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Why was 14.10 only supported for 9 months? Best one yet.

[Kaj Ailomaa]

The support period is not really up to us. Mainly it is up to Canonical
who maintain the ubuntu base packages which all Ubuntu flavors share,
and there would be no way for the other flavors to take over such a
massive amount of maintenance. On top of that, we do not maintain XFCE -
xubuntu devs does, which would make it hard even if Ubuntu main packages
were still maintained.

Ubuntu supports their LTS for 5 years, however all the flavors support
theirs only for 3 years. This is the reason we are only supporting 14.04
for 3 years. Probably we will stop supporting 12.04 this spring, all
though we have claimed to support it for 5 years until now.

you are always welcome to use whatever you like for as long as you like.
you need to be aware of the security issues that can arise from using
unpatched operating systems.. for me, my audio workstation is an
"appliance" that i dont update. its not online, so i have no security
risks.. i can run any EOL (end of life) distro i choose without any
security risks. all that means is, for 9 months, you are freely given
support.. patches, and updates. if one want, one can patch and update ones
own packages for as long as one cares to. the LTS (long term support)
releases are supported longer. the "regular" releases are newer packages.
it follows upstream ubuntu. it *is* ubuntu..

the release schedule is basically
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/ReleaseSchedule though milestones can
be skipped along the way by the flavors..
