OT: for anyone curious about Linux byond Ubuntu...

Richmond - 

Q:  What does it have that Ubuntu with E17 doesn't?

A:  Thanatermesis!

I notice that they are asking for a small donation for the download - which 
I'm happy to give as recognition for having got to 1.0, since I've a soft 
spot for them, and think its amazing what they have done with such a tiny 
group.

Another effort on similar lines is Fluxbuntu - though Elive is intended to be 
Art, and Fluxbuntu is intended to be Minimalist.  Also however a noble effort 
by a tiny little group.  Fluxbuntu might best be left for a couple months 
till they catch up with the next Ubuntu and get current again.

I'm completely unconnected with them by the way, don't even know them.  Just 
pleased to know there is room in Linux for this sort of thing.
