I thought the very notion of LTS was that it would be the stable, long
term supported, safe for business and stability model, thus the very one
that those who need the latest and greatest and newest and on the edge
versions should avoid. If you want a stable, reliable, predictable linux
for your business, go LTS. If you need the latest spongy windows and
cubist desktop switching and the like, upgrade your ubuntu every 6
months. Or do I misunderstand the intent of LTS?
