I want to programmatically obtain the list of all Ubuntu series, in release order (preferably via a URL). If I obtained the list say around July 2024, it would show
oracular, noble, mantic,..., warty
whereas the list as of November 2024 would be
plucky, oracular, noble, mantic,..., warty
Looking at the Launchpad web service I can obtain the published binaries for the user canonical-kernel-team
using https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa?ws.op=getPublishedBinaries&status=Published but that is as far as I can get...and I don't want a specific user/project, rather I want the list of all series.
Also, I am also concerned that if the API above can be used, it is perhaps obsolete as there is a reference to EOL circa April 2015.
