Well, in four years, the 10th anniversary of ubuntu's first release will come about. I was just wondering, will the ubuntu art team, or anyone be doing something special for it at that time?

Maybe UF members can think of something here and pass it on to the devs?

What I think: Is make a special art set (themes, wallpapers, etc.) and name it ubuntu-10year-art in the repos. ;) maybe have a wallpaper timeline or a group wallpaper of all the animals that made their debuts?

Oh and, for those of you wondering "Why start this now?" it's because I'll be using the LTS for that long. ;) So there is some symbolism here.

Ah, but not any old Ubuntu coffee mug, a 10th anniversary Ubuntu coffee mug.

A little early for this thread, IMO... :)

Maybe the Ubuntu team should announce the "event" and the announcement of a "new creative product."
This would create 4 years of free advertising while various tech reporters try to figure out what the new product will be. Imagine the hype we could accumulate in that time. :p

Well I thought this thread was a bit early.


4 years to create an ultra super mega bash of awesomeness I guess.
