2.14 will be the next LTR, but it will be 'named' LTR and be available
in the LTR repository when we release 2.16

See:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-community-team/2016-March/004554.html

So depending on your goals you could start with 2.14 knowing it is still
2.14.zero(!) maybe hitting a .0 bug, but then you know what to work with
when it will be the true LTR within a 3 of months.

But if you want current rock solid LTR: grab 2.8 for the upcoming months.
