Welcome to Kubuntu 5.10: the Breezy Badger Release.
The Kubuntu project aims to be to KDE what Ubuntu is to GNOME: a great integrated distribution with all the great features of Ubuntu, but based on the KDE desktop.
The team behind Kubuntu makes the following commitment to its users:
Kubuntu uses the solid base of Ubuntu plus the latest KDE. We are part of the Ubuntu community and use their infrastructure and support. Our mission is to be the best KDE distribution available.
Kubuntu will always be free of charge, and there is no extra fee for the “enterprise edition”, we make our very best work available to everyone on the same free terms.
Kubuntu includes the very best translations and accessibility infrastructure that the Free Software community has to offer, to make Kubuntu usable by as many people as possible.
Kubuntu is entirely committed to the principles of free software and open source development; we encourage people to use free and open source software, improve it and pass it on.
Kubuntu includes more than 1,000 pieces of software, starting with Linux version 2.6 and KDE 3.4, and covering every standard desktop application from word processing and spreadsheet to Internet access applications, web server software, email software, programming languages and tools, and of course, several games.
