Even though I would also like to see a better-defined set of packages
that the flavor is willing to support throughout the LTS, I do feel
like the Kubuntu team does continuously demonstrate that they're able
to provide support for all of its core components throughout previous
releases. With this in mind, I'm also +1 on Kubuntu as an LTS for
24.04.

Hi folks,
To avoid this languishing whilst waiting on the supported packageset to
be clarified, I would like to proceed with having TB members vote on the
proposal.
From my side, the only outstanding issue is the supported packageset -
otherwise the details outlined earlier in this thread regarding the
support cycle and key contacts plus bug reporting guidelines etc all
look appropriate (not to mention the track record of participation in
previous LTSs as well as interim releases too).
+1 from me for Kubuntu 24.04 to be designated an LTS with support for 3
years (on the to-be-decided packageset).
Thanks,
Alex

Thank you Steve, that would be wonderful.
Alex, yes of course, once I have a clear set of packages, I will rewrite
this request with all the amendments. Thank you all for your help and
patience while I get reacclamated with the process.

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
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?
Kubuntu packageset would probably be a better set of words as to what
we will
support in the 3 years.
The current kubuntu packageset is quite large -
https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/packagesets/noble/kubuntu
Note, the kubuntu team does not have to commit to maintaining all of
these packages over the course of the LTS (particularly since a lot of
these are in other seeds etc).
I wonder if instead it would be more realistic to commit to those in the
supported seed for kubuntu:
https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/seeds/kubuntu.noble/supported
Please bear in mind that the "supported" set gives a list of packages
supported by the Kubuntu team but NOT part of the kubuntu image; because
those are in a different seed. As I alluded in the TB meeting, what we
really want here is "all packages seeded in any of the kubuntu seeds, plus
their dependencies as determined by germinate, minus anything that is
already supported by Canonical for Ubuntu".
I will try to get something stood up this week that can report on what
exactly that looks like, so that you can confirm what you intend to support
(and also hopefully make it updateable so you can iterate if you identify
stuff you no longer want to support).
