The Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server is supported until 2015 and LTSP/Gnome runs well with it on my fat clients.  I'm not planning to change for next year...

I'm wondering what people (Kamloops, Saanich and elsewhere) are doing
for Sept. in terms of OS and desktop environments?
 
I'm leaning towards CentOS 6 as I know it the best, but also
considering Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
 
If I go Ubuntu, I think I would have to setup XFCE as default. I don't
think I can handle all the support issues with Unity. Am I being too
scared of Unity?
 
CentOS 6 uses good ol' gnome2 and is supported for a LONG time but
doesn't have as many desktop app packages as Ubuntu.
 
Fedora is no longer an option as DRBL doesn't work with systemd.
