Ubuntu is as known as Jesus Christ, Mohammed, Micky Mouse, Coca~Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft and Apple. Are there plans to make Ubuntu Studio more known than Jesus Christ, Mohammed, Micky Mouse, Coca~Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft and Apple? If so, for what purpose? What people who already know Ubuntu do not know, is that Linux is not the same as Ubuntu that Ubuntu provides "flavours" that Ubuntu Studio is a flavour that derivatives are not Ubuntu flavours To clarify this issues would be the best promotion for Ubuntu Studio, much better than messing up all available locations with a permanent marker. There's another issue that needs more explanation, but it's not needed for Ubuntu flavour PR, OTOH it's related to PR. Many users misunderstand what "LTS" stands for. Many users expect the opposite of what is provided by a "LTS". My POV is that good PR isn't done by aggressive promotion and deals with the devil. Good PR is done by selecting locations for PR and by relying on the reputation of Ubuntu. Explain that there are Ubuntu flavours (one of them is Ubuntu Studio) and explain that some Ubuntu maintainers and users are against Ubuntu spyware. Since Ubuntu is known as much as Coca~Cola and Co, it also gets bad press. Transparency, clarification and explanation based on truth are the best PR, assumed the target isn't the same as that of Micky Mouse, Coca~Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft and Apple. Ubuntu Studio also shouldn't have the same target as PR for Jesus Christ and Mohammed has got, unfortunately there already is too much Linux audio faith.
