"With a message dated 14th December 2005 the Ubuntu server team was officially created. This group of programmers has the task of creating a server-specific version of Ubuntu Linux. This is particularly interesting, since up to now the Debian-based distro has been desktop-oriented. That's why I decided to ask some questions to Fabio Massimo Di Nitto, the server team leader."

I think something that several of the comments have incorrect/missed is that (last I read) not all of the Ubuntu releases will have the 5 year lifetime. There will be select releases along the way which also have the extended lifetime. Of course, this article does nothing to clarify this :-)
Again, this is based on information they put out a few months ago, but I'm fairly certain it still holds. I'd guess the extended support releases would be on the order of 2 years apart, though that's only a guess.
