I'd also like to thank Greg.

Ubuntu will continue to support 2.6.32.y until April 2015. Ubuntu has 
also chosen 3.2 as a long term supported kernel for the 12.04 release 
and will pick up support for it when 3.3 is released.

Debian is still discussing which kernel to use for Wheezy, but Ben 
Hutchings has expressed strong interest in 3.2 on 
debian-kernel@lists.debian.org.
