Re: Time for a name change?

 

Hey,

Well, the idea is not to keep UGR but instead use UGE (Ubuntu GNOME
Edition). To be honest, I still prefer Gubuntu and fact that Google have a
"internal" (not public available) distro with the name Goobuntu (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goobuntu) don't looks to be a good excuse.

The only problem that I see with Gubuntu is the fact that domain is not
available.
