Well, I don't have really the time to teach people on how to build iso.
I think also that people that will learn this knowledge will want to
create their own distro, sooner or later. You probably noticed than we
run out of devs recently on LXDE side, so devs time is precious :) I
would like to teach backporting, which could be useful for everyone. But
I still can't find the time to organise it, so iso bulding is currently
out of the scope.

[Lubuntu-desktop] A replacement

Hiyas Julien,

lubuntu team, it is still early days but he is favourable towards lubuntu as
his posting at

As ever, the decision is yours.
