Dear Lubuntu-users,
Greetings! I am Raymund. I would like to help in the marketing side of
Lubuntu, especially branding.
In almost all articles I read about Lubuntu, the distribution is
featured as a suitable OS for slow or old hardware. However, I see a
much more potential for Lubuntu, not just in the desktop.
IT administrators who wish to migrate to Linux but accustomed to the GUI
of Windows server may want a server distribution that is not totally
reliant on commandline, thus, having to learn Linux from the ground up.
My proposal is for Lubuntu to be marketed in both fronts - fast and
lightweight desktop workstation and as a Linux production server with
GUI. This way, when a company decided to do Linux migration, it would be
easier for the IT personnel not accustomed to Linux to work with the
Linux environment.
A Lubuntu distribution for servers would have:
(1) games removed
(2) significantly enhanced security
(3) administration and networking utilities added
(4) Basic Ubuntu server installed; tasksel installed by default
(5) long term supported (though understandably hard at the moment
because of manpower)
Any members of the Lubuntu team/users also into promoting Lubuntu as
production server with GUI?
Best regards,
Raymund
I think http://www.zentyal.org have done rather a good job of this already.
