Ubuntu Studio 11.10 UI discussion. GNOME3, Unity, XFCE and Studio users workflow.

[ailo]

The reason I bring this up is perhaps there is someone on puredyne's
team that would like to assist in developing Ubuntu Studio, since they
base their system on XFCE and Ubuntu, and will likely not want to do the
same work twice, anyway.

They might have a different set of requirments for their release, but
still, it would make sense to try build some bridges.

I can take the initiative to such a contact, anyhow. I subscribe to
their mail list and am connected to their irc channel. Not much
activity, but it's worth a shot, I think.
Especially since puredyne is a great distro for audio.
