Application for official community flavour status for budgie-remix

[David Mohammed]

Many thanks Mark for the advice and encouragement.

  I think this is the relevant ubuntu wiki advice (
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages).

We'll begin to upload our 16.10 packages to our yakkety-testing PPA (
https://launchpad.net/~budgie-remix/+archive/ubuntu/yakkety-testing) in the
next few days and follow the wiki advice to request a sponsor via a
launchpad "needs-packaging" bug-report.

We'll start with the core upstream packages such as budgie-desktop that
we've already made Debian ready before moving onto the handful of "Ubuntu
budgie" specific packages.

cheers!

David
