I see value in having both a generic channel (i.e. -derivatives) and in
derivative-specific channels (e.g. -ubuntu).
At this point in time though, it's clear that there's no way of reaching
critical mass on a derivative collaboration channel other than
#debian-ubuntu, simply because it is at the Debian/Ubuntu border that we
happen to have more interactions (and developers) ATM.
So, yes, let's keep both, but I'm skeptical in reaching an active
-derivatives now ... unless people from other derivatives chime in and
make it happen (hint hint :-)).
Cheers.
