--- Comment #25 from André Pirard A.Pirard@ulg.ac.be --- In comment #20 I explained that I had posted a drastic to try patch that would have Mint called itself Ubuntu again for this purpose. I was accused of making an ugly patch and I replied that the ugly patch is Mint's (and even Mint). Those people are so bright that they moved my answer to another thread, but without the question!
Well, basically, Mint is Ubuntu with the non-Open Software additions that Ubuntu does not want to preload, a few niceties and, mostly, maquillage (макияж). That used to be done before with add-on CDs and if you look inside Mint's CD, you will see just that: Ubuntu + add-on packages. So, the even more drastic move would be for Ubuntu or someone to also steal from Mint back, to make that add-on CD and to call it Mintequivalent Ubuntu without tears and with Ubuntu support (which kicks off Mint). If you knew some Ubuntu friend wanting to hear this...
