In my opinion, they are going to have to offer an LTS to LTS upgrade. Enterprises don’t want to spend hours performing four complete upgrades from 6.06 to 8.04.

Is there any detail about the upgrading process from one LTS to another? Normally, only upgrading to the next version is supported. But what about a way to get from one LTS installation to another? Even 3 years desktop support don't last forever... That’s good news!

That is great news. I have been theorizing that the LTS release would be scheduled every 2 years. This is great news! Ubuntu's release schedule gives people the best of both worlds. Many users like to see new applications and fancy visual improvements as often as possible. These users can upgrade to the new version every 6-months, and also use the backports repository. (They can even test the beta-releases if they don't mind the possibility of breaking their system!) Large enterprises do not want to upgrade their computers every six-months, and they do want a highly tested, stable system. This is even more important if they are running Ubuntu Servers. These users will likely choose to only run LTS releases. Sweet! That is great news. I have been theorizing that the LTS release would be scheduled every 2 years. This is great news!
