Derivation Admin User Interface
for Launchpad itself
The creation of new distributions and distribution releases is one of the main purposes of Launchpad. This task needs to be done by people who do not necessarily have a deep understanding of how the derivation process works

Derivation Overview
for Launchpad itself
A distribution of GNU/Linux comprises a set of packages, an installer, possibly a live-CD, some amount of metadata associated with the arrangement of those elements and also a lot of information on managing it.

DistroRelease Flavors
for Launchpad itself
Ubuntu has as part of its project, a number of views onto the Ubuntu distribution such as Kubuntu and Edubuntu. These are comprised of pure Ubuntu packages and they are essentially a separate set of seeds (which contribute to Ubuntu's components) and a bit of other metadata.

Seed Management and Inheritance
for Launchpad itself
Seeds are Launchpad's way of letting people specify which binary packages are wanted, not wanted, banned, and so on in a distribution release for one or more architectures and DistroReleaseFlavours.

for Launchpad itself
The consequences for an accidental slip in the administration of Distributions, Releases and Ports in Launchpad are huge. For this reason, we need to be extra careful with permissions on those actions. This spec tracks that work.
