lubuntu-desktop team mailing list archive

[David Sugar <david.sugar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, of course, without a seed and meta, there is no proper way to ever
produce or distribute a Lubuntu, however the community chooses to shape
it, or to have anything for people to work on artwork, etc.  So I simply
started from a minimal approach, and of course all the stuff to produce
and modify the seed are in public bzr branches in the team repo.  There
are hard deadlines for Karmic, so a seed had to be made at this point.
