I've never had any desire to run a non-LTS release after the next one was rolled out. This only reinforces the importance of LTS for those who don't want to be on the upgrade train.
Always make regular backups of your data (and test them).

I used to like PPAs but they can become a pain to manage. I prefer Arch's AUR to PPAs in all honesty. I'm currently installing crunchbang waldorf on my laptop (which is wheezy) and I'm happy with not having PPAs. My laptop I want stable without hiccups. Desktop I run Manjaro for newer packages. I've also seen so many PPAs with the same stuff that you are not always sure which one to pick from a maintenance perspective.

I am not sure if this will play out though, as why release packages for interim releases and such if they are not going to be supported as long?
There should be more done for the backports project if this is how things are going to roll, as why bother with a new release if its obsolete so soon?
In addition, Development is supposed to switch over to the rolling release style (no upgrade needed to continue to the next development release) although it's not going to be called "rolling"....
That is the other decision that was made as stated in this article...and it starts with ubuntu 13.04 development and going forth from there...
