The Ubuntu distribution focus was chosen by the group which initiated
the speech which is a political party and not the linux people
involved. The disks being distributed will be Ubuntu Dapper. I have
been putting together some additional materials about free software in
South Australia which are currently at http://lucychili.net/sa which
are not related to a distribution.
