Is Ubuntu good for Linux?

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu is the face of GNU/Linux for many non-techies.
|
| While there is no question that Ubuntu has brought some high-powered 
| marketing to the table for GNU/Linux, I've heard many discussions recently 
| about Ubuntu actually hurting Linux and the Linux community.  
| 
| I ask the question, "Is Ubuntu good for Linux?" Of course, this depends 
| largely on your definition of what being "good" for Linux means.

Towards the freedom of the operating system: the French Gendarmerie goes for
Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| In 2001 the Gendarmerie Nationale, France's national police force, started
| introducing open source software. The main goals were to gain greater
| independence and flexibility than proprietary software could offer. The
| decision to migrate all new workstations to Ubuntu, taken in January 2008,
| was the most important step in this transition so far.
