@Mario, as Michael Hall, a member of the Ubuntu Community Council said, bug comments are not the place for arguments. Let's keep the discussion on topic.
The problem is that users are confused about the two websites. lubuntu.me came into existence due to a lack of control at lubuntu.net, which was constantly out of date. Even though it links to many resources on the wiki, it provides download links separate from that. Without being able to keep those up to date, that is, among other things, problematic. Though lubuntu.me solves this problem, the existence of both websites creates a new one: a clash of information and a confusion for users. The solution is very simple. What we need is one website, and one which is ultimately decentralized. With lubuntu.me being hosted by Canonical (in process) and being registered by Canonical (also coming soon), it not only appears official, but then it is within the control of the Ubuntu Community since the resources Canonical provides (IS Team, Community Council) serve that community. Right now, lubuntu.net is neither official nor within community control. However, Lubuntu is certainly an official flavor of Ubuntu[1][2][3][4] and subsequently "owned" by the Ubuntu Community, rather than being the project of any one particular person. This is why the IS Team and the Community Council were contacted and provided the change to the ownership of the Lubuntu Team. After all, this is more decentralized.

I have used Lubuntu for many years and thought the lubuntu.net webstte was the official site for lubuntu. I have subscribed to the RSS feed to get news, but lately, there have been very few. Recently, I discovered the lubuntu.me website. It seems more active and the blog is up to date on news. There is no indication on either that they are not official, but on the bottom of both, there seems to be information pointing towards both being owned by individuals, not by the Lubuntu project. This makes it hard to know which is the official site, if any. Would it not be less confusing for users to have one website and make the other address redirect to it?
