Minor correction: 13.04 and 13.10 will only be supported for 9 months, but 12.10 will be supported for 18 months.

Duh. That's obvious from the version numbers. Everyone knows that even dozens are supported 18 months and that prime number versions are only supported half of the time.
Ubuntu technical board decided to shorten the support window for the 'between LTS' releases from 18 to 9 months starting from 13.04.

Number theory not required.
