Frankly I wasn't expecting so much resistance. Why is everyone so much
opposed to the idea of a new ubuntu flavor ? If Ubuntu muslim edition,
christian edition, satan , ultimate, fluxubuntu can co-exist then what's
the problem in a new Indian edition ?
Ubuntu is not the only linux distribution. There are other -RedHat,
Mandriva, Debian, Gentoo ...and each has its own user base. If everyone
started to think like this then only 1 distro would be maintained
(*patched*), the rest would should be discarded. Infact if that was the
case then ubuntu itself should not have started (after all debian was
already available and ubuntu is its derivative).
Distrbution is "just" an assembly of existing software ..so how can u
call this reinvention of wheel ? Moreover, I'm not talking of compiling
everything from scratch but only to use fewer ubuntu packages, and
certain modifications to make it more functional.
In any case these are my views and I'll be going ahead with these.
