Hi :) I agree that's the way Ubuntu do it but as Jay was pointing out we don't always need to follow their way.  Ubuntu and Firefox have had huge successes in getting into mainstream markets so it might be worth noticing what they do but we might be able to improve on their ideas.  Personnally

Each line ends. If someone is still using 3.3.5 in December 2013 [13 months after it was released], they should be encouraged to upgrade to a newer line. I do not think there will be an end of support for an old product line, but to be honest, how long will we support the older lines? 2
