Ubiquity is a simple graphical live CD installer designed to integrate well with Debian- and Ubuntu-based systems, written largely in Python, using d-i as a backend for many of its functions for ease of maintenance.

After initial development work by Guadalinex, ColinWatson did most of the development work on Ubiquity, with the aid of JonathanRiddell for the KDE frontend, and EvanDandrea later contributed work on migration-assistant. EvanDandrea is the current maintainer.
