Ah, that's the mail I had in mind -- although with wrong version
numbers.

 http://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2012/01/msg00254.html

And that's the mail I missed. Thanks for the pointers!

3.2 would be maintained (at least) by Ubuntu up to 2017 since they will
be using it for their 12.04 LTS release

There is a thread for the discussion about the Wheezy kernel here:
