Work items:
Application selection with community input: DONE
Create Lubuntu seed [1 day]: DONE
Artwork and Ubuntu-izations: POSTPONED
Status:
Done!
Artwork:
It is possible artwork may be completed by the community and patched on top of one of the existing LXDE package, but also quite possible no additional artwork be ready for packaging by the community for Karmic release at all.

Time estimate:
2 weeks
