xnox | stgraber: ECONTEXT - is that correction against the backgrounds bug comment? | 19:13 |
stgraber | xnox: against your changelog entry in ubiquity ;) | 19:14 |
xnox | fair enough. | 19:14 |
* xnox still doesn't have a clear & consistent terminology for components, pockets, archives, suites. colin corrected me a few times, but i can't help it still | 19:16 | |
stgraber | a lot of peole get confused between derivatives and flavours but we've tried to get it consistent over the past year or so. | 19:19 |
stgraber | flavours are products that are built from the Ubuntu archive, most of which have been explicitly approved by the TB. | 19:19 |
stgraber | derivatives are products done outside of the Ubuntu community but based on Ubuntu. | 19:20 |
stgraber | so Edubuntu is a flavour and Mint is a derivative. | 19:20 |
stgraber | When working in Ubuntu, we should usually care about flavours as they're part of the project, but we don't really have to care about derivatives | 19:20 |
xnox | stgraber: official vs unofficial flavour? | 19:22 |
xnox | or simply it's a flavour if meta-package is in the ubuntu-archive and is self-contained in the ubuntu archive? | 19:22 |
stgraber | self-contained in the ubuntu archive is what makes a flavour | 19:23 |
stgraber | official vs non-official then depends on whether the Technical Board accepted it as such | 19:23 |
