I can see how there is some confusion here. I see them as: * Favors - community development distributions based on Ubuntu, but part of the Ubuntu project (e.g. Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu). * Derivatives - any other project based on Ubuntu but not part of the Ubuntu project (e.g. Mint). I think we should get some clarity on this and communicate this outwards. Kate (CCed) - is this something can help with?
