LTS is Long Term Support. Meaning that this distribution will remain
"stable" and supported for at least a couple of years. 10.10 would be the
Ubuntu analogue of Debian "testing" -- or rather, "stable" with packages
from "testing".
Either way, it is the deployment of choice for users who would not normally
upgrade their distributions after every major release.
