Thanks again for all the stable support and maintenance.
Thanks for letting us know, but given that I have stated numerous times that I can not maintain 3 longterm stable kernels at the same time, and if you look at the published supported schedule at: https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html it's going to be impossible for me to choose 3.13 as a longterm kernel, sorry.
But best of luck with your LTS kernel, and if you find patches that are applicable for 3.10, please feel free to send them to stable@vger.kernel.org so that we can pick them up for that release as well.
thanks,
