Ubuntu gets ‘Budgie’ flavour

Linux distribution Budgie-remix has transformed into a new Ubuntu flavour. With this development, the open source build is now available as ‘Ubuntu Budgie’.

The team behind the platform confirms that the Ubuntu Developer Membership Board has passed Budgie as the official Ubuntu flavour after reviewing its technical aspects. For users, the transformation will bring community standards to the distribution. “We have come a long way in a short time with our first 16.04 release — a major update at 16.04.1 as well as following and taking an active part with the Ubuntu release cadence for 16.10,” the Budgie team wrote in the announcement statement.
