Where is Ubuntu 17.04?

Posted on February 13, 2018

I recently created a droplet for my testing environment using Ubuntu 17.04 x64. Now I am trying to create a staging environment based on that same Ubuntu version, but 17.04 is no longer available. I just see 17.10 and 16.x.

How can I create a droplet based on 17.04? Or, what is the policy here? Does DO only support the LTS versions and the latest version?
