Would it be a good idea to switch to 3.2 now until October? Linux 3.2 is used by Debian 7 and is definitely widely tested by a lot of people.
The plan for the LTS kernel is to avoid frequent major upgrades. We've stayed with 3.0 for about 2 years now. We could have moved to 3.4 a year ago, but since 3.0 was going to be maintained until fall 2013, we chose to keep it. We might as well keep 3.10 for another 2 years. I'd also prefer to use only G-KH's kernels for LTS, and 3.2 is not maintained by him, but by Debian (not that that's bad in itself).
