Re: [libreoffice-users] Working on an archive site/pages for LO and the DVD[s] I have been working with

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 i 
agree that back-porting bug-fixes is as far as we need to take it but that's really something for 
the devs to decide.  

I think that this list's function in terms of support is just being able to directly help or 
sign-post people to help for supported releases (such as LTSes).  
Regards from
Tom :)

The whole *point* of LTS is 'bugfixes only'. If you want new features, upgrade to the latest 
version that has the features you want/need.
