For ubuntu it basically boils down to
- since 18.04 is an LTS release, current in the above = 18.04, and 16.04
the LTS release (ie, the previous release)
- once 18.10 comes out, it will be "current", 18.04 will be the
supported LTS release.

Other earlier releases may work and may still be supported by their
vendors, that's just what we target, if it works on earlier releases,
then that is a bonus

Bill happy for you to do some work on these playbooks
