Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is a long-term supported version. Canonical is not very satisfied with the fact that Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 only provides two years and three months. After discussions between Canonical and GNOME developers, ubuntu GNOME 14.04 has been supported for three years.

This is an internal Ubuntu email about the extended support time. The following is the content of the email:

"I am very concerned about this proposed support timeline. 2 years and 3 months means that the support period wocould end the same month that 16.04.1 is likely to be released. given that our policy has been to not recommend (or advertise in the UI) LTS upgrades until the first point release, this vulnerability tively gives users zero margin between the dropping of security support for Ubuntu-GNOME 14.04, and the first upgrades to Ubuntu-GNOME 16.04 ,"

In addition, Ubuntu 14.04 will use GNOME 3.10 instead of GNOME 3.12, because GNOME 3.12 was released in December March this year and is too time-consuming. In order to provide a more stable environment, there is not much time for testing.
