ok this thread / post seems to have gone a bit far down the wrong
path. This isn't a 2 year old's playground.
This is the ubuntu-au mailing list. If you want to create a *new*
distribution please do not start a thread here. This post should
really have been about suggestions to improve the ubuntu distribution
for Australian users.
There are already 1000000000000000000000000 linux distributions we
really do no need another. The issue has always been that none was
large enough or had enough ease of use and mass appeal. We now have
ubuntu. It isn't perfect, nothing is perfect.
If you want your own distribution go and make it. However, i do not
think this list is going to really be of that much help.
To actually maintain a linux distribution properly you need a *lot* of
people. Canonical employees people full time who support and develop
for the ubuntu distribution. The debian project has a lot of
developers who participate in their free time. The linux kernel
contributors if you look, are mostly from companies. Sure i'm happy to
admit there are a few *small* linux distributions out there who have
one developer who works on the project. However, those really
do/cannot offer the same level as support as ubuntu or any of the
major distributions can offer.
