Changes to Gobuntu
[Distributions] Posted Jun 13, 2008 18:36 UTC (Fri) by ris

The Gobuntu development team has announced that after the 8.04 release of Gobuntu, the project will aim to merge many of the Gobuntu changes into mainline Ubuntu. Ubuntu will feature a "Free Software Only" installer option which only installs software considered free by the Free Software Foundation's definition of software freedom. "This installer option now obviates the need for a separate derivative project, and in the interest of reducing the workload of Ubuntu core developers, the Gobuntu project will instead focus on merging as many changes as possible into mainline Ubuntu."
