Ubuntu_Studio
Mubuntu is the tentative name of a Multimedia derivative of Ubuntu, currently being planned. This page is the starting point for these plans.
==Initial Thoughts==
Things we need to consider:
- Art
- Theme
- Color scheme
- Wallpaper
- Default Desktop Environment
- Menus
- Kernel requirements
- Packaging
- Missing apps
- Outdated apps
- Apps to remove
- Metapackages
Please expand and work on this page... I will add more later on.

==Goals==
===Audio Workstation===
Biggest contribution we can make to desktop audio / multimedia is with integration. Press upstream developers for lash support; that's a big piece of the integration issue.
Do we want to start jackd automatically? This is probably not useful to anyone not doing audio work all the time.
==Packages Needed==
===lash===
This package probably needs to go into Debian, if we want the extra line added to /etc/services (that file is maintained by Debian). I (Forest) currently have the packaging part done. I just need to get it accepted by Debian, and have not been through that process in the past. I also need to chat with netbase maintainers to get /etc/services modified (one additional port for lash -- lashd crashes without it).
netbase maintainer: Anthony Towns <ajt@debian.org>
