  1. Dumb question by Wellington+Grey · · Score: 0, Redundant

    What's the reason for developing a whole new branch of Ubuntu for a specific purpose? (Such as the EDUbuntu) Why not just have a list of programs that people might want to download. Are there really changes that need to be made at the operating system level for multi-media editing?
