Hi,

I noticed that Linux kernel 3.16.x is LTS at kernel.org.

Will Debian 8 switch to to kernel.org's LTS version or will it stay with
Ubuntu's version of that kernel?

Kind regards
Georgi

The former, because Ubuntu no longer maintains the 3.16 kernel.
Actually, 3.16.36 is already in jessie-proposed-updates[1].

Cheers,
