Canonical To Drop Support For Ubuntu 9.10
With an announcement on the security mailing list, Canonical has confirmed that support for Ubuntu 9.10 will cease on April 29 2011. This came as no surprise as it adheres to the expected support cycle of a .10 Ubuntu release, and 9.10 is now 18 months old.
The recommended upgrade path from 9.10 is to Ubuntu 10.4. As a .04 release, 10.04 is a long term support (LTS) release and support will end on April 2013. Note that, according to official Ubuntu documentation, it's not possible to skip a release version when upgrading. So, it's not possible to go straight from 9.10 to 10.10.
