[UbuntuWomen] Ubuntu4girls projetc

[Miriam Ruiz]

Quote found by Erinn Clark, from Debian Women: "That's sexism, that
is. Going around giving people girly presents just because they're a
girl." (Good Omens (by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman)

Aside from that, if the purpose is to do a girly ubuntu, why not?

These are the steps I would go through:

1) Decide the target group.
2) Decide the extent of the changes: Just a theme? Selection of
packages? Create some packages? Develop specific software?
3) Check the target group for their preferences. Ask the girls what
they would want, instead of imagining what we would want if we were
them.
4) See what's already available. Maybe have a look to what other
groups are doing and what we could reuse.
5) Implement what needs to be added, and also add it to the base
distribution, Ubuntu and/or Debian if they can benefit from it too
(like a theme, new packages or new software)

Of course, one of the main points here is that there is a need of
artists willing to develop the artwork, as that is gonna probably be
the major difference with the base distribution.
