Objectives
The Ubuntu MATE Remix has the following primary goal:
Use Ubuntu to create a solid foundation on which to build a pure MATE desktop.
Ubuntu MATE Remix has some secondary objectives:
-Increase both Ubuntu and MATE user adoption.
-Restore the halcyon days of Ubuntu before indicators, Unity and scopes were introduced.
-Be the go to Ubuntu alternative for computers that aren't powerful enough to run a composited desktop, as well as those that are.
-Make use of existing Ubuntu themes and artwork wherever possible so Ubuntu MATE Remix is immediately familiar.
-When ever possible submit new or revised packages to Debian so both the Debian and Ubuntu communities benefit.
-Package selection will favour functionality and stability over lightness and whimsy.
-Provide a refuge for Linux users who prefer a traditional desktop experience.
-Get adopted as an official Ubuntu "flavour".
