"Ubuntu's sister flavours" sound a bit nasty in english (flavour also
being something you taste and sister your female sibling ;-) ).
Perhaps just "Ubuntu's flavours" or as Corey suggests "Ubuntu's
Partner Projects" which sounds good. Partner Projects is what is used
on www.ubuntu.com

I think REVU is the only one that is specific to MOTU. MoM is used a
lot for Main as well and packages.ubuntu.com is a generic tool that
everyone should get to know at some point.

Thanks for this doc Andreas, it's looking real good so far.
