Develop a system assistant tool for common users

Registered by Jack Yu

--------------------------------------------English Description---------------------------------------------------
We want to provide an simple but complete and powerful GUI tool, named Youker Assistant, for users to use and manage their systems, which should be welcome by most common or nonprofessional Linux users.

There are some reasons for this:
     (1) We want to promote UbuntuKylin to more and more Chinese users, and most of them are nonprofessional users, also not Linux fans. Hence, we should provide tools helping them manage their UbuntuKylin easily.
     (2) Some commercial tools like this, for example, 360 softwares (http://www.360.cn/weishi/index.html) on Windows and mobile phone, are already very popular in China, if we want those users switch to UbuntuKylin, they will require this tool as well.
     (3) Some software are already developed to support a subset of functions we proposed, such as Ubuntu Tweak, gnome-system-monitor, computer-janitor, and so on, but none of them could satisfy all our requirements.

You are welcome to join the discussion, development, QA and any work with this project! Please send email to our development mailing list (<email address hidden>) if you have any questions.

--------------------------------------------中文介绍----------------------------------------------------------------------
本项目计划为用户提供一个简单但功能全面和强大的图形用户界面工具——优客助手,方便其使用和管理桌面系统。优客助手预期会在普通的非专业Linux用户中受到欢迎。

发起本项目的原因如下:
   (1) UbuntuKylin团队希望将UbuntuKylin推广到更多的中文用户,而绝大部分中文用户都是非专业用户(俗称“小白用户”),而不是Linux爱好者。因此,我们希望能够为他们提供一款简洁的工具方便其管理UbuntuKylin;
   (2) 目前国内已经有很多基于Windows和移动手机的成熟的商业软件,比如360软件(http://www.360.cn/weishi/index.html)。这类软件在国内已经非常流行和实用,如果希望这类用户能够转移到UbuntuKylin上,他们也需要类似软件;
   (3) 尽管目前在Linux上已经有很多工具支持对系统进行管理,比如Ubuntu Tweak、gnome-system-monitor、computer-janitor,但我们认为其功能还不够全面。同时,目前这些工具的代码框架不具备很好的可扩展性,普通开发者也较难参与其中。

   欢迎您参与到本项目的讨论、开发、QA以及任何相关工作中。如果有任何问题,请发送邮件到UbuntuKylin开发者邮件列表:<email address hidden>,谢谢!
