The problem with each of these documents is that they do not offer the
clarity of statement that a simple and direct FAQ would. And I authored
one of the documents mentioned here :). Questions that come to mind are
things like:
1) What is the mission of Lubuntu
2) What are the baseline system requirements
To which I would like to suggest 64m ram/256m disk, and 800x576
resolution (hence covering old traditional 800x600 and netbook
1024x576...) as both a goal and challenge for this team...
etc...
Something like that is what I had meant about the need for a FAQ.

Perhaps this offers an opportunity for someone to put together an
initial Lubuntu FAQ on the wiki...

Alright, not that I want to start any E-fights, but I do believe these
are serious questions that need to be answered
in any project, there needs to be a driving reason behind it other
then
because, also, there needs to be a reason for people to try it, and
switch, or else this project will eventually fail.
in light of this, here are my questions
1- what will Lubuntu offer that any other version of *buntu does
not offer?
2- what kind of performance increase shall we see with Lubuntu?
3- what is our geographic and demographic target?
4- is Lxde ready for its own *Buntu variant?
5- how will Lubuntu compared to Xubuntu in terms of GB install, Ram
usage, performance and functionality?
6- what is the projected usage curve for this project?
these are hard questions to answer, however they do need to be
addressed. I own a computer repair and sale company in Canada, and
I and
currently in university studying accounting and marketing.
regardless of
how we feel about it, we are competing for market share with countless
Linux's including which many variants, official or not of Ubuntu. Is
this system competing against all distro's? Xubuntu only? Ubuntu and
Xubuntu? #!? or is it a system that will be aimed for the Windows/mac
user to switch.
