> In my opinion, we should tag on this version files that is about a LTS version of Ubuntu, not just for fun, but about marketing products. (For example : in phpSysinfo, it will be more "marketing" to have "Ubuntu 8.04 LTS" than "Ubuntu 8.04", the "LTS" tag can reassure business entreprise if they don't know about Ubuntu support and if they see it on other phpsysinfos, they can ask about "What is an LTS version like 8.04 ?").

When he begin to « know » Ubuntu, he will see on System Monitor of GNOME that his version of Ubuntu is a LTS which have a support for three years. (A new user can't say "Oh, it's Ubuntu 8.04 apparently, so it's a LTS !).
