They might just make some one day. No single country or county shares the
exact same needs. Taking an existing distribution and then applying some
patches leads to a nice branch (not fork)... like localisation. Even Windows
has got those... without the flexibility and extra packaging though. In same
places, such as Korea (Europe to a lesser extent) there's even /less/
delivered, for legal reasons.
It should neither be unusual nor peculiar to use something like rPath's
builder to easily tailor a CD/DVD with the desired package (rather than have
list of packages or repositories, like *buntu). Even Munich and Kerala are
creating their own Debian derivatives.
