Sorry for using offensive phrases here. I will go more defensive then
like "utter nonsense", ok?

By which means will be outdated again? As I said in the users mailing
list, 14.04 will receive hardware enablement stacks.
Status as of today:
By using any Ubuntu 12.04.x LTS we have a wider hardware support than
with using Xubuntu 12.04 or Xubuntu 12.04.4.
Probably wider, but Ubuntu 12.04.x LTS can't support processors with no
PAE support. I would imagine many of the computers currently running
Windows XP fall in this category.
And this is going to help us in a more successful way to replace XP
installations. To replace XPs go with Xubuntu not Ubuntu (Unity) is
your message. Did it take you a long time to figure out this strategy?
We don't need an offensive attitude on this mailing list.

Xubuntu 12.04.4 LTS on the other hand, would miss a historic
opportunity by making a "kernel jump": the demise of Windows XP is a
one-time opportunity which shouldn't be missed.
