    SHEBUNTU Project

    Hi to All
    My name is Ivan fro Italy and I'm Ubuntu user and I love this OS
    I created a new project on Launchpad and I'm just asking you help about that

    https://launchpad.net/ubuntushe

    SHEBUNTU would be a new version based on Ubuntu dedicated to women world.
    Ubuntu is a Debian-based operating system that is having considerable success in the world of Linux and Open Source, but I believe and am convinced that the majority of users are men.
    The purpose and the goal of this project is to raise awareness and bring this OS to the world of women by giving all women the opportunity to understand and use SHEBUNTU operating system.
    In surveys carried out most of the women interviewed, want a simple and already complete system with no further complications in the installation of programs or other, SHEBUNTU wants to satisfy this request by using already potential and ease of installation and hardware recognition of Ubuntu, but with the peculiarity of having everything already installed, tools,links and programs dedicated to women, plus special graphics, backgrounds, themes and logos for women too.
    I think this can help the Ubuntu community to widen the already large number of users, while giving all women the chance to appreciate an operating system dedicated to them

    <<My wife doesn't want use Ubuntu yet so I want create a new version of Ubuntu for all female world, simple version based on Ubuntu for approach all women at the Linux and Open Source world with installed all tools, programs and utility for them, like horoscope, fertility calculation, diary, meteo, links at the most famous female sites,pidgin plugins, skype, with female themes.....and many other>>

    Please let me know
    We just looking for:


    • Graphics for the new themes,usplash,logo and wallpapers
    • New female programs,tools and links list
    • Collaborators

    Thanks to all
    Regards
    Ivan

    Pardon if I may, but this distro sounds, at best, sexist. Also: Another fork of Ubuntu? Really?

    Ivan, I think that if a Ubuntu derivative, being aimed at meeting the requirements of the female of our species is required, that it should be organised by the female Ubuntu users themselves.

    I've learned over the last 50+ years that the male & the female brains are very different. There are quite a number of scientifically based books on the topic.

    Being a male, making a Ubuntu for the female, is certainly not a situation I would want to put myself into.

    I take my hat off to you, though it could be for your funeral...

    If the fork was made by one, or preferably a team of females, I don't think there would be too much opposition.

    As far as being sexist is concerned? That really is a very interesting statement.
