Hai Charlie (and the rest),
I think something went wrong with your reply so I forwarded to everyone
again.
@Scott K: I think it's a problem with using a lot of terms side-by-side and
mixing things up even. As you can see, the page [1] Ubuntu uses is called
Derivatives. However on that same page the officially recognized once are
suddenly called flavor. In my humble opinion it's a more friendly term to
use, but we should get some (dare I say it?) Unity in our naming scheme.
It might have been my mistake, because the information [2] given by Kate
apparently also talked about Flavors. But it's important everyone knows what
the correct term is/should be.
I hope this clears up some of the mess (originally created to ask for help
on getting links to the meeting minutes).
I can see how there is some confusion here. I see them as:
* Favors - community development distributions based on Ubuntu, but
part of the Ubuntu project (e.g. Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu).
* Derivatives - any other project based on Ubuntu but not part of the
Ubuntu project (e.g. Mint).
I think we should get some clarity on this and communicate this
outwards. Kate (CCed) - is this something can help with?
