 Ah, you mean Wiccans? When I say pagan I mean someone who belive in forces of 
nature, and try to live in balance with them. Without witchcraft. But with 
rituals that are natural.

 Building such LiveCD shouldn't be as hard as forking Ubuntu in general. 
Thanks to the LiveCD design it's very easy to remaster Ubuntu. If you want to 
Ubuntu themed installation, LiveCD would ,,penetrate the market''. Also, 
other people intrested would jump in to help.

 Yup. We all love it. Some of us (I will not point finger here) take thier 
installation CD to the bed. ;-)

 Ubuntu is build for people. For humans. Pagans are humans (mostly..;-).

 In FOSS you mostly ,,scrach your itch'' -- you need it? Do it! Others will 
join.

 Sure, hope you'll be able to start with it. OK, tell me, do you understand 
process that's listed under: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveCDCustomizationHowTo 
-- if yes, you just did first step. :-)
