I would still stick with Gubuntu. The trademark policy sais something like:
"Where the changes from the official Ubuntu product are minimal the Ubuntu trademarks may be used, but only to identify that the system is based on or built on Ubuntu" As GNOME 3 is now part of the official repos and even installable on a 'normal' desktop installation, the changes are really minimal. I have also asked the Community Council if there are realistic chances for an 'official' GNOME Ubuntu spin. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Team UGR, which is subscribed to ugr-meta. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755189 Title: Gubuntu as project name Status in Ubuntu Gnome Remix Metapackages: In Progress Bug description: Kde has Kubuntu. Xfce has Xubuntu. Lxde has Lubuntu. It only makes sense that GNOME follows in the same path with Gubuntu. With all due respect, "Ubuntu Gnome Remix" is long and boring. Ubuntu/Canonical trademark rules: *buntu names can be used only for INternal ubuntu projects. Names that include *buntu can NOT be used by community projects like UGR. We are seeking to become an official Ubuntu project. If this is successful, it is HIGHLY likely we will use Gubuntu. To get there, we have to get approval from a number of Ubuntu boards, mainly the technical board. To get this, we have to prove our work is quality and the project is sustainable. Then, we can get in to the Ubuntu universe, in p-series (12.04) at the earliest. Currently, we face issues with both quality and sustainability. We're working on a new QA system and rewriting code the right way. We also need a few more core devs so that the project doesn't just die for months like it has. Note that we CANNOT keep UGR if we become an official Ubuntu project, as 'remix' apparently implies an external project.
