Aside from these technical advantages, open source software also has economic benefits. While users must adhere to the terms of an open source licensing agreement when installing and using Ubuntu, for instance, they needn't pay to obtain this license. While not all open source software is free of monetary costs, much is.

Naast deze technische voordelen heeft open source-software ook economische voordelen. Bij de installatie van Ubuntu bijvoorbeeld moet je als gebruiker wel akkoord gaan met de voorwaarden van een open source-licentieovereenkomst, maar je moet voor die licentie niet betalen. Al is niet alle open source-software gratis, voor de meeste is dat het geval.

Ubuntu is one of several popular operating systems based on Linux (an open source operating system). While other versions of Linux, or ``distributions,'' may look different from Ubuntu at first glance, they share similar characteristics because of their common roots.\marginnote{A \gls{distribution}, or ``distro,'' is a operating system made from open source programs, bundled together to make them easier to install and use.}

Linux distributions can be divided into two broad families: the Debian family and the Red Hat family. Each family is named for a distribution on which subsequent distributions are based. For example, ``Debian'' refers to both the name of a distribution as well as the family of distributions derived from Debian. Ubuntu is part of the Debian family of distributions, as are Linux Mint, Xandros, and CrunchBang Linux. Distributions in the Red Hat family include Fedora, openSUSE, and Mandriva.

The most significant difference between Debian-based and Red Hat-based distributions is the system each uses for installing and updating software. These systems are called ``package management systems.''\marginnote{\textbf{Package management systems} are the means by which users can install, remove, and organize software installed on computers with open source operating systems like Ubuntu.} Debian software packages are \acronym{deb} files, while Red Hat software packages are \acronym{rpm} files. For more information about package management, see \chaplink{ch:software-management}.

Het grootste verschil tussen Debian-gebaseerde en Red Hat-gebaseerde distributies zijn de systemen die ze gebruiken voor het installeren en bijwerken van software. Deze systemen zijn zogenaamde "pakketbeheersystemen". \marginnote{\textbf{Pakketbeheersystemen} zijn de hulpmiddelen waarmee de gebruikers software op hun computer kunnen installeren, verwijderen en organiseren in opensourcebesturingssystemen zoals Ubuntu.} Debian-softwarepakketten zijn \acronym{deb}-bestanden terwijl Red Hat \acronym{rpm}-bestanden gebruikt. Zie \chaplink{ch:software-management} voor meer informatie over pakketbeheer.

You will also find distributions that have been specialized for certain tasks. Next, we'll describe these versions of Ubuntu and explain the uses for which each has been developed.

Dan zijn er ook nog distributies die gespecialiseerd zijn voor specifieke taken. We zullen hierna de verschillende versies van Ubuntu omschrijven en uitleggen waarvoor de diverse versies ontwikkeld zijn.

Just as Ubuntu is based on Debian, several distributions are subsequently based on Ubuntu. Some of these are made for general use, and each differs with respect to the software included as part of the distribution. Others are designed for specialized uses.

Net zoals Ubuntu gebaseerd is op Debian, zijn andere distributies weer op Ubuntu gebaseerd. Sommigen hiervan zijn gemaakt voor algemeen gebruik en ze verschillen onderling wat betreft de meegeleverde software in de distributie. Anderen zijn weer voor gespecialiseerd gebruik gemaakt.
