Lucid has reached EOL for the desktop versions but not for the server 
version. Therefore the repositories are still available. Of course there 
are no more updates for the desktop components but as the server version  
is still supported, you may still get updates e.g. for the kernel. You 
can expect the EOL for the server version in about two years.
