Indeed, you could make arguments for RHEL, SLED/SLES and probably others too. 
Since Ubuntu seems to be the preferred flavour in the CI system (which I have 
nothing to do with, BTW), my intention is to suggest that at least for that, we 
should really be supporting one of the longer lived versions. *Hopefully* that 
will help also keep things working for the longer lived versions of other 
distros too, but it is by no means a guarantee. The choices here are pragmatic, 
there will always be a tradeoff between coverage and cost.
