OK- I see your point. Many of the lockers I maintain are updated at
least annually and some about every 6 months; so for my purposes going
only with LTS releases is likely to be problematic. I could keep
maintaining those apps in lockers but that's not exactly a desirable
solution if they're available as Ubuntu packages and I'd much prefer
putting as much as possible in the release.
