I'll put this topic for discussion in the next team meeting. I would
like to set up teams, and the Marketing team is one of them.

On http://ubuntuforums.org/, I'm not sure there are dedicated forum for
Kubuntu, Xubuntu ... Using tag seems to be useful, because some requests
/ questions may apply to all the derivatives.

Canonical doesn't provide direct financial support, unless they have
financial interest :) They already provide various support, by giving us
access to some services, see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecognizedDerivatives for details.

Using indicator-session-gtk2 + the indicator applet of lxpanel should
work. The support for indicators in Lubuntu is not perfect, some of them
have need Ubuntu / GNOME components to run properly.
