Urdu-BB aims to be a an Ubuntu based linux distribution

• whose primary focus is users from Pakistan and India who use Urdu in Arabic/Farsi script .
• is very very easy to use (bringing computing to villages, madrassas, train stations, mosques, parchoon shops ,khokas, taat schools)
• is very low on resources (should be able to run on old computers, laptops easily)
• doesn't let end users miss out on any thing (like mp3, flash)
• can easily tap into the WiMax and mobile revolution currently happening in Pakistan and let people connect easily.

It is not aimed for high end programming, servers, high end multimedia etc (it is assumed that a person who requires such things would move on to Ubuntu or other more suited alternatives. It will be available in urdu only but can be used to browse english based websites and type in english if needed. This project will probably take a good deal of time to get some foothold but I think it's the step in right direction. Let's hope it doesn't take as much time as GNU Mach kernel did.
