What I don't understand is why the two paths stable-> Hardy (LTS) and
bleeding edge -> Karmic has been lost. When I adopted Ubuntu (it was
around Edgy) I remember that the first thing that I saw when I arrived
to www.ubuntu.com was that if wanted stability I should install Dapper
(was that the name?) and if wanted bleeding edge but didn't mind
risking some instabilities I should install Edgy. I decided to go the
Edgy way but I was prepared to get some unstable or broken things.  

Nowadays when you arrive to www.ubuntu.com no mention to the LTS
version and it seems the only suggestion is to install 9.10.
