They're going to bring Mir/XMir in for an LTS? That seems to be risky to me. These large Canonical-backed projects seem to have a whole lot of rough spots on launch day. upstart and Unity both were very buggy initially.
Or is this going to be one of those cases where they come out aiming for LTS, but end up pushing it back to the next release?

Now all I can think of is a guy named Jimbob wanting to get a set of four tahrs for his truck.

"At least we know now who belongs to the Open Source Tea Party"
Ouch! Shuttleworth doesn't shy away from controversy. It's not a bad thing to be polarizing in a quickly-moving industry, but that comment seemed pretty harsh.

They should have gone with Tapir. That way we could have made "Calvin"-type peeing stickers that spanned the entire back window of our pickup trucks.
Tapirs - The Super Soakers of the animal kingdom.

Nice adjective for the LTS.

Targ would've been better, IMO. ;)

Dear Mark Shuttleworth,
It's not too late to switch the name to Titillating Tit.

I was rather hoping for Tumultuous Tarsier.

So what happens after when they reach Z?

Although LTS releases are more reliable and better supported, I find the other releases to be more exciting. Hence I will probably wait for 'Ubuntu 14.10 Unitarian Unicorn' or whatever it is called.

Stupid name like all Android/Ubuntu releases.

I think "Tim Tebow" would have been an awesome name.
