no, seriously, imran must've been sacarstic.

do we really need a(nother) distro? think carefully about answering this
one.

there are already so many distros, why not just stick with the popular
ones? why not use your time and effort (and energy) into sending back
"BM" upgrade packs to the redhat folk and so on. that way, the next time
i install fedora, i'll take it as a challenge to get it done in Bahasa
Malaysia!

seriously, don't re-create the wheel. its bad karma. help make a better
UI in the language of your choice, but don't bother making another
distro. because when it goes unmaintained, it will just cause more
hassles.
