Um, its 2013 now

Ubuntu distinguishes an LTS release by the support commitment that goes with it, nothing more.

Here is what they say about it.

The Ubuntu team broke new ground in committing to a programme of scheduled releases on a predictable six-month basis. It was decided that every fourth release, issued on a two-year basis, would receive long-term support (LTS). LTS releases are typically used for large-scale deployments.

>However, 12.04 is still the current LTS release.

I was using Ubuntu 12.04. I keep running into a bug, but can't report that bug,
because Canonical is no longer accepting bug reports for that version.

I've since switched to Ubuntu Studio, and whilst I have the same bugs, bug
reports appear to be accepted.
