Linux Kernel 3.18.9 is an LTS release now!!
Posted: Sun Mar 22, 2015 9:46 pmLinux 3.18 kernel has changed its status to LTS (Long-Term Support) on 11th March 2015. ie, It will be supported with patches for at least two more years from today. This also means that, instead of upgrading to the current stable release Linux kernel 3.19.1, some operating systems will stick to this kernel itself.
