I don't know, you would have to ask the members of the Unity 2D team at canonical. > In that case we will have enough to use for next year or so on > stable production machines. Ubuntu 12.04 LTs is supported on the desktop for 5 years. This means that important fixes and security updates will be made to Unity 3D and 2D for the next 5 years. Where possible, this will include accessibility fixes. > Talking about Vinux, I am just curious if we will have a ppa for 2D? > May be some one can then take up the job of maintaining it? Vinux 4 will be based on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, so Unity 2D will be supported by Canonical for the next 5 years, likely longer than Vinux 4 will be supported. > Lastly, if we have Vinux 4, will we get all future accessibility > fixes to other software like thunderbird etc, even though Unity 2d > might be kept constant? Thunderbird and Firefox will be updated to the latest stable relesaes during the 5 year support lifecycle of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. For Vinux 4, I will do my best to make sure we have the latest orca and other necessary accessibility stack code so that users can take advantage of the latest accessiblity fixes in thunderbird and firefox, for the length of the Vinux 4 support lifecycle.
