By Canonical yes:
http://www.ubuntu.com/info/release-end-of-life
but that doesn't automatically make it good distribution for OE builds, I'm playing
devils advocate here, because most jenkins slaves I have access to are
currently using 12.04 (that's why I've noticed this issue in first place).

I was already considering upgrading them to 14.04 and people can use
build-appliance-image if they cannot just upgrade their host distro.

FWIW: Poky already dropped it from SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS in Fido release:

commit b528712a076ad2fd08ec8a3cbcd7aefd612d999f
Author: Lucian Musat <george.l.musat at intel.com>
Date:   Mon Mar 23 12:35:12 2015 +0200

    meta-yocto/distro: Updated SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS.
    
    Added OpenSUSE-13.2, Fedora 21. Removed poky 1.6 and Ubuntu 12.04.
