<br>Subject: Localized Distributions<br>To: <a href="mailto:loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com">loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com</a><br><br></span>Hey all,<br><br>I would like to announce the formation of the Derivative team[1]. Our
<br>mission is to help create and maintain distributions that are derived<br>from Ubuntu.<br><br>One of the main categorizes of derivatives are localizations, created by<br>you the loco teams.<br><br>I would like to offer our help in creating and maintaining your local
<br>derivative.<br><br>At this time, our primary goal is establishing consistent policies<br>between Canonical, Ubuntu, and derivatives[2]. These policies should<br>eliminate the need for each derivative to individually approach
<br>Canonical and Ubuntu to ensure that they are in compliance with<br>trademark, source code distribution, and local branding issues. The are<br>policies are not easy to establish so please be patient.<br><br>Our secondary goal is to establish conversations with the various
<br>existing derivatives to determine their specific objectives and<br>requirements[3]. Once we establish these objectives and requirements,<br>we will start on helping you meet your objectives.<br><br>Please consider adding your derivative and derivative contact
<br>information to the derivatives page[4].<br><br>If you would like more information (or would like to help) feel free to<br>contact me via this list or email.<br><br>1. <a href="http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeTeam">wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeTeam
