user|96279Hi, i have a question, what is the difference between a LTS Version ? I hope you understand me :)00:27
user|96279Should i download Kubuntu 16.10 or the LTS Version?00:28
valorieuser|96279: that depends on how often you like to upgrade00:29
valorieLTS is good if you want stability, and only upgrade only 2 or 4 years or so00:30
daxLTS is supported for 5 years, non-LTS are... 9 months now i think?00:30
valorieregular releases are supported for 9 months00:30
valorieso basically you would want to upgrade every 6 months00:30
valoriewe try to backport what we can to the LTS, but not everything can be00:31
valoriesecurity updates are always done of course00:31
user|96279i gues i want upgrade regulary00:31
user|96279So I should download the LTS Version?00:32
user|96279Thank you for the support :)00:33
