I would also like to highlight that the name LTS is very confusing for our users, as it's used in a different way than others are using. Outside of Debian, an "LTS release" is a release which will receive longer update. Though in Debian, every release is an LTS. We just only begin to call it this way once it's effectively out of our standard security update procedure. The result is that when we call wheezy the LTS Debian, someone may be confused and believe that other newer releases will *not* get extended support. I'm not sure how to fix that. Probably the first step would be to explain this in our wiki, and tell that the term "LTS" has a different meaning in Debian. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
