The fate of Upstart
Hello Recently, the developers of Ubuntu have decided to migrate the init system from upstart to systemd. So, I would like to find out what will happen to upstart after Ubuntu complete its transition to systemd. Will development of upstart be abandoned after the transition is completed?-- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

The guys at MATE are currently attempting to upload the packages to Debian but as of now there is little progress into it. The MATE repository have MATE packages for Ubuntu available, so I included the MATE repo for the packages. Shall we pull all the MATE packages into the Ubuntu repo directly or we build the sources ourselves? -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

Planning to create a new distro of Ubuntu
Hello I am planning to create a new distro of Ubuntu which will have the GNOME 2 look and feel. For those of you who are subscribed to ubuntu-users, you would have heard about my plans to create this (Anyone interested in a "GNOME 2 look and feel" remix?). Officially called Ubuntu MATE Remix, this will integrate the MATE Desktop Environment to the power and stability of Ubuntu. In fact, I already had a working prototype based on Saucy Salamander. You can download the prototype at https://shared.com/unqjauvtrj Currently, there are a few issues with the prototype. 1. I do not know how to implement a GUI bootmenu in the Live CD (like the one used in the Ubuntu Live CD). 2. I do not know how to make the system to autostart the GUI, so the only way to start the GUI is to type 'startx' on the command line. I will be generating another prototype based on Trusty Tahr soon. After testing out my prototype, can you give me a few suggestions to improve the distro? I hope that this will be officially recognised and supported by the Ubuntu community.
