Philosophy

The team behind the Ubuntu™ and Kubuntu™ projects makes the following commitments to its users:

  • Kubuntu™ will always utilize the solid base of the Ubuntu™ project plus the latest from the KDE™ project. As part of the Ubuntu™ project and community, Kubuntu™ will continue to use the infrastructure and support that the Ubuntu™ project offers. We will strive to be the best KDE™-based Linux™ distribution available.

  • Kubuntu™ will always be free of charge. There is no extra fee for an enterprise edition; we make our best work available to everyone on the same free terms.

  • Kubuntu™ will always include the best translations and accessibility infrastructure that the free software community has to offer to make Kubuntu™ usable by as many people as possible.

  • Kubuntu™ will always be committed to the principles of free software and open source development; we shall encourage people to use free and open source software, improve it, and pass it on.
