GOOD IDEA! <div class="gmail_quote">2009/3/19 Adel ESSAFI <<a href="mailto:adelessafi@gmail.com">adelessafi@gmail.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div dir="ltr">Hi list I was using fedora and redhat since 2000. To day, I can see that our favorite distro is really very strong. However, I have done some experience (short) with Ubuntu and I have liked to LTS concept (Long Term support). My idea is to build a distribution that is based on Fedora at 100% with 1. LTS 2. with a very reduce number of packages 3. with proprietary codecs and essentiel software (mp3, flash ) included in. I know that the variety of the open source projects are making it's power. However, I aim to build a distribution with only one software from each catégory. That is, I have to choose between: * KDE and GNOME for the destop * rhythembox , kaffeine, ....... as media player * abiword or openoffice as office writer ............................................. Technically, I will maintain a repository with a reduced number of packages. If I get positive feed back from this list, I can start working on this project in july This distribution will be very useful for starter!!
