I like the idea.  As a team of beginners we can learn from each other
with a place to ask questions.

If I may suggest a package how about vnc4server.

It is full of bugs some of them in the packaging some in the program.

I use it when I can
but often run into programs that just don't work with it and produce
unintelligible errors in inaccessible places.

It is a very useful program that works well with CentOS so I don't why
it shouldn't with Ubuntu also.

Maybe you can tell, I've sort of already adopted it as my personal project.
