Pretty much already done:- https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/ubuntu-easy-business-server https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/ebox :) The plan is for Ubuntu to release a server product which achieves many of the goals for a small office / home office product, with an easy to use admin tool.
