Right, that means:

 a) we follow a normal six month release process, without any specific focus
    on making the release appropriate for the long term support cycle [1]

 b) we have to wait until October before shipping a long term supported
    release, while we've committed to doing so in April

We can't just follow the same release process and expect to be able to ship
a long term supportable system. 6.04 will be different, so we need to think
about it differently.

[1] this is all about managing long term support cycle, not 'enterprise',
which doesn't actually mean anything sensible
