Hello all,<br><br>It's looks like Xubuntu is getting ready for a first release. I'm really interested in this, I think it's going to be wildly popular.<br><br>I was thinking that Xubuntu will probably want its own website (
<a href="http://xubuntu.org">http://xubuntu.org</a>) and possibly a dedicated forum on that site. I would like to make you all a proposal regarding that site: I would be willing to arrange for hosting of the site and the forums, as well as a domain if needed, as long as I could put Google Adsense ads on every page. I'll try not to put them in an obnoxious spot or overdo it- I am going to be using this site too. The only thing I'm not sure about is the viability of hosting the ISO's on this site- I'm not sure if I can afford the bandwidth. Might be best elsewhere, possibly with Cannonical.
<br><br>Basically, I'd like to try making a little side money with a website + Adsense, but I couldn't think of any content that isn't already flooded with competition. But Xubuntu will be really popular really fast, and you're going to have a lot of traffic. Xubuntu will need a nice website of it's own- that's one of my key factors when picking a distro. I also like it when they have a dedicated forum on that site. In other words, not linking to
<a href="http://ubuntuforums.org">ubuntuforums.org</a>, but having our own forum onsite.<br><br>I'm not the world's best web programmer, so I can't guarantee that I can do a huge amount of technical work on this site, but I'd be happy to pay the hosting costs, and then turn the keys over to whoever is the webmaster for Xubuntu. I have also done extensive research on web content management systems and forum packages, and I would be happy to install and maintain those, if you want. I also have a fair amount of Linux experience, so I could contribute to a FAQs section or HOWTO section. I also speak fluent Spanish, so I could help to translate at least parts of the site, or help in a Spanish forum.
<br><br>What do you think? Any takers? <br><br>Thanks for your help!<br>Samuel<br>
