Dragon Linux is a unoffical remix of Ubuntu Linux, and serves as both a polished end-user distribution and a reference for other distributions who wish to incorporate our work.

How will this be released?

All development takes place on GitHub, github.com/VenithNET. We write our contributions with the intent to upstream them into the respective upstream projects.
