Review: Fuduntu 2013.2

Bit late, huh ?

Nope. The distro will continue, probably under another name, rebased to openSUSE.

I stand corrected. You have insider information that I don't have.

"The distro is basically the same. You know, except for the core it is built on, the name, and the people spear heading it's development."

Sounds like a new project to me...

RIP Fuduntu.

This is one of those cases where they started based on Fedora, I believe. Once they went their own way, it looks like it became too hard to deal with all the plumbing that a big distro like Fedora or Debian takes care of for its downstream derivatives.

Jeff91: It's the same team minus Andrew Wyatt.

I'd still argue that changing names and distro bases means a new project caitlyn.

@Steven I completely understand that. I was surprised when they tried to do everything themselves.

There is a reason I rebase Bodhi on a new Ubuntu release every two years. It takes about that much time for it to start becoming difficult to backport things.
