Hi Scarlett Thanks for sending through the application for Kubuntu 24.04 LTS. The listed points of contact look great - as does the support timeframe of 3 years. I notice you state the following two points
> bug fixes in KDE for the 3 year period > maintain the KDE packages in Ubuntu for the proposed 3 years However the kubuntu packageset is more than just KDE - also it is not clear to me which packages in the kubuntu packageset would be included in this list - can you please be a bit more specific as to which packages this would include? Also can this also be documented publicly on kubuntu.org (perhaps at both https://kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/ and https://kubuntu.org/support/) so that it is clear to Kubuntu Users what the support timeframe is and which parts of Kubuntu they should expect support for from the kubuntu-dev team? Finally, I went looking for details on how to report a bug in Kubuntu 22.04 LTS - that led me to https://github.com/kubuntu-team/kubuntu-manual/releases/tag/v22.04.2 which eventually links to https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Bugs/Reporting which is no longer available - can you also please make sure that it is clear to prospective Kubuntu users how to report bugs to the Kubuntu developers?
