Let me put this out there so there isn’t confusion.
The regular 6 month releases of Ubuntu are the stable releases. A LTS release is released
every two years on the same cycle as regular Ubuntu releases. A LTS release is certainly
more stable than regular releases, but not calling regular releases stable is a bit
misleading.
For server purposes, I think we can stick to LTSes. Approximately
nobody runs a non-LTS Ubuntu for their web hosting. (And even less now
that non-LTSes are only getting a nine-month lifetime.)
