At the Ubuntu Developer Summit in May, several of us that work with
GNOME in Ubuntu discussed the need for a Ubuntu community derivative
similar to Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and others but which will try to ship a
relatively pure GNOME experience.
The traditional Ubuntu naming convention for these alternate flavors
is "Gubuntu" but it seems that could cause confusion with the
pronunciation of Google's internal distribution Goobuntu. We'd like to
instead use GNObuntu.
We want to run our proposed name past GNOME first to avoid the hassle
and conflicts of being forced to later rename the project.
Thanks,
Jeremy
