Better title?

It's a young project so we just may not be able to muster the support for an LTS until 16.06, but we're not dead or dieing.

Must still be some Dapper rolling around in my brain somewhere.

"Ubuntu GNOME Might Fail To Do A 14.04 Release"
which is obviously wrong. The extra word "LTS" changes the meaning completely.

What thing do you mean?
I think the speaker had many good points, and I think Pottering was rude and had mostly weak responses to the issues.
But I don't know if these issues has been fixed or not.
Potterings argument at the end, that you get it for free, is worthless. He should know that. Its about quality and free software, not about price.
At the same time I believe Pottering is able to get a lot done when he puts he's mind to it.
